Mammoth tusks F1

The hybrid variety Mammoth Tusks F1 amazes with its size: the length of one “tusk” can reach 27 cm and weight – 300 g! This pepper is fleshy, juicy, has a delicate taste and rich aroma, making it ideal for adding to salads.

The variety is undemanding to soil, resistant to tobacco mosaic, and is suitable for growing in a greenhouse and in open ground. The plant can reach 1 m in height. The yield is quite high - 12 fruits from one bush.

A pleasant bonus of the Mammoth Tusks F1 variety is its spectacular appearance, and we’re not just talking about large “tusks”. This pepper has a very beautiful bright yellow color, which turns green at the base of the fruit.

Reviews about the variety

“I have been planting Siberian Prince for several years, along with such varieties as Kupets and Belozerka. Pepper feels great in unprotected beds. I like this variety for its unpretentiousness and good yield. I collect seed material from my own peppers, so I am always confident in its quality. The seedlings sprout together and do not get sick. Many people point out that peppers are tall, but personally, my plants in open ground did not exceed 50-60 cm. I never tie them up or plant them.”

Victoria (Biysk):

“Siberian Prince is one of the best varieties for our region. This year the temperature dropped to +4 degrees at night, but the pepper withstood the cold. The setting, of course, suffered from this, some buds fell off. But I’m still happy with the harvest.”

Ekaterina (Voronezh):

“I can’t distinguish the Siberian Prince from other species with anything special. I planted it the first year, the pepper is like a pepper. In my opinion, there are now many modern varieties to which it is inferior in yield, taste and appearance.”

Siberian Prince is one of the most popular early varieties of pepper in the northern regions and central zone of the country. With minimal care, it shows good yield under any cultivation conditions.

Zorka

Sweet pepper of the Zorka variety cannot boast of the heroic size of the previous one on our list, but it is a real record holder for early ripening. You can harvest the first harvest from the bush within 3 months after sowing the seeds.

Zorka is a fleshy, thick-walled pepper, but the fruits themselves are not very large (their maximum weight is 130 g), so it is suitable both for fresh consumption and for rolling.

This variety is not picky about growing conditions and tolerates various diseases. The bush bears 6-8 fruits, which ripen at the same time.

Zorka pepper is interesting for its rich sweet taste and beautiful color (during the ripening process, the color of the fruit changes from white to rich red).

Player

Another variety of tasty and productive bell pepper. Gardeners like the player for his unpretentiousness: he is not afraid of frost, undemanding to the soil, and resistant to diseases. The fruits ripen early - 100-150 days after sowing, and almost simultaneously.

The pepper is fleshy, super thick-walled - the wall thickness reaches 9-12 mm. It tastes sweet, juicy, aromatic, which gives any vegetable salad to which it is added a touch of pleasant piquancy. The compact round shape of the fruit makes the Player variety ideal for stuffing and canning.

TOP 5: the best varieties of sweet pepper 2022 for open ground

Like tomatoes and eggplants, sweet peppers are heat-loving crops that do not tolerate sudden cold snaps and frosts. And although breeders work every year to ensure that many varieties have high immunity to temperature changes, so far they have only managed to achieve resistance to drops of up to 15 degrees Celsius during the daytime. If in the summer an anticyclone comes to the region and frost hits, the crop freezes and stops developing. To avoid this, you should not choose sweet varieties for open ground in Siberia and the Urals, where summer remains extremely short.

#1 - Big Mom

Large red sweet peppers are an achievement of Russian breeders. It first appeared on sale in 2011, and since then it has remained a favorite of many gardeners who have a vegetable garden in Central or Central Russia. Recommended for planting in open ground with moderate sun. Allows proximity to nearby growing tomatoes and cucumbers.

The distinctive features of this variety are: medium height, small leaves that slightly cover the fruits from the sweltering sun, cylindrical vegetables with slight ribbing, a rich orange hue, the weight of each fruit can reach more than 200 g.

Gardeners growing this variety note the following positive qualities:

  • great taste;
  • neutral aroma;
  • universal use in cooking (suitable for any dishes and even preparations for the winter);
  • time-shortened dyeing;
  • resistance to heat and temporary cold;
  • Possibility of transportation without loss of appearance.

The main disadvantage of “Big Mama” remains its susceptibility to blossom end rot.


Photo of seeds

No. 2 - Kolobok

One of the proven varieties that remain among the “best” for 35 years remains the development of Soviet breeders with the fabulous name “Kolobok”. This variety for open ground is ideal for the climate of the Moscow region and Moscow region, Volgograd, Voronezh, Lipetsk, Khabarovsk and Tomsk lands. The plant takes root well in the central zone, giving its owners juicy, beautiful peppers that have both a light green and a rich red hue, depending on the ripeness of the product.

The weight of each pepper can range from 120 to 180 g. The bush is small, growing in length no more than 38-42 cm.

Unfortunately, with improper care and frequent overwatering, it is prone to tobacco mosaic, blossom end rot, anthracnose and fusarium.

No. 3 – Maccabi F1

Not only Russian seeds are popular among gardeners. An early hybrid variety, bred 5 years ago in Israel, has taken root well in our latitudes, becoming the best variety for many summer residents.

Resistance to diseases and pests, immunity to weather changes and the possibility of universal use in cooking give Maccabi F1 an advantage among traditional varieties of sweet peppers.

Of the minuses, only two problems can be identified that require attention as the bushes grow:

1) garter (necessary for the stability of the fruits so that they are suspended and not lying on the ground);

2) fertilizer (in order for the peppers to grow fully and reach a good weight, the plant should be fed with horse manure, rotted leaves, eggshells or potato peelings).

No. 4 – Valentina F1

Last year’s new product, which became one of the most discussed among gardeners, was “Valentina”. A hybrid marked F1, with a powerful root system, a chic semi-spreading bush and elongated fruits of orange or red color, makes it possible not only to grow a good harvest, suitable for consumption raw or canned, but also to decorate the area at the time of growth. Its beautiful powerful bush with small leaves harmonizes well with the trees growing nearby.

The weight of each fruit can reach 250 g.

In comparison with many hybrids, in addition to resistance to diseases and pests, the variety has the ability to grow even in dry weather. Fruits are not afraid of the sun, but rather, on the contrary, they take it for granted.

Having chosen this variety, the gardener should know that it is difficult to acquire this variety. Although it is sold in all stores, the risk of buying a mismatch is high.

#5 - King of the North

When choosing early-ripening varieties for open ground in the Middle and Northern zones, it is worth taking a closer look at the old but proven type of sweet pepper - “King of the North”. Its weight, even during periods of temperature fluctuations, can reach 250 g. However, if you harvest ahead of time, the likelihood of the presence of bitterness in the taste increases. This can be avoided by collecting fruits, only those that have gained a mass of more than 160-170 g.

The variety is used for stuffing and canning, suitable for preparing fresh vegetable salads and slices for the holiday table.

Low calorie content allows you to consume pepper during a diet.

Planting (Pepper King of the North)

Seeds are planted in peat pots 60-70 days before the intended planting in the garden. Picking is carried out when there are 2-3 leaves.

The planting pattern on the site is 50 x 35 cm. Fertile soils with good lighting are suitable for cultivation. Watering is moderate but frequent.

Sowing . Pepper is more heat-loving than other crops. Its seeds germinate in 7-9 days at °t 20-25°C and in 18-20 days at °t 13-15°C. Pepper requires the most heat during the seedling phase. If °t is below 12°C, growth stops. At °t 0.3 - 0.5 °C frost, plants die. The optimal °t for the development and growth of pepper is 18-25 °C. Sharp temperature fluctuations have a very negative effect on plant development. At temperatures below 15°C and above 30°C, pepper flowers fall off. To obtain early seedlings, seeds are sown from late January to early February in a greenhouse. The seeds are sown scattered, sprinkled with a 1.5-2 cm layer of soil on top. Shoots appear on 8-10 days. As soon as two true leaves form, the seedlings are ready for picking. The picking is carried out in a greenhouse according to the 8x8 cm pattern. They are planted in open ground at the end of April - May. For late seedlings, sowing is carried out later. As soon as the danger of late spring frosts has passed, the seedlings can be planted in the beds. In this case, the °t of the soil should not be lower than 14 °C.
