One Growing Cycle

5,000 HARUCHO plants: records from the first harvest

We grew 5,000 plants of ‘HARUCHO’, a functional salad pepper that is not spicy and has a sweet taste, on 500 pyeong (approx. 1,653 m²). We planted 4 plants each in 1,250 pots about 1m in diameter, and grow them while keeping cultivation records.

When reading these records

These figures were recorded by the operator in its own management log and have not been verified by an outside organization.
This is a record of one growing cycle (about 100 days from the first harvest), not a full 1⁠-⁠year result.
For the same variety grown in a regular greenhouse, there is no comparison record.
