Kondor

Practical Guide to Growing Kondor Sweet Pepper

Working with the 'Kondor' variety from Gavrish, one immediately appreciates its reliability. It acts as a workhorse for growers who prefer predictable results over experimental outcomes. This variety is equally effective in glass greenhouses and open field conditions, making it a flexible asset for any farm operation.

Agronomic Performance and Maturation

The 75–80 day ripening period allows for precise harvest scheduling. We have observed consistent fruit sets, meaning the peppers mature almost simultaneously, which is crucial for efficient market supply. The transition from the light yellow-white technical stage to a vibrant red biological stage happens rapidly, preserving the marketability of the crop.

Productivity and Handling

• Fruit characteristics: The conical shape is highly efficient for crate packing and transport. With a weight of 120–160 grams and wall thickness of 5–7 mm, these peppers are dense and resistant to bruising.
• Maintenance: The plant structure doesn't require overly complex pruning, saving significant labor time during the growth cycle.
• Versatility: Excellent adaptation to temperature fluctuations in greenhouses and resilience in open fields.

If your goal is a high-yield variety with predictable, consistent results, the 'Kondor' pepper from Gavrish hits the sweet spot. The walls are thick enough to provide a great crunch, while the shape remains uniform, ensuring that the harvest meets consumer expectations for high-quality, sweet peppers.
