crop Celeriac,
where this is mentioned in the description.
The crop is characterized by a long development cycle, making the vegetation period a key varietal trait. According to ripening time, varieties are divided into early (120–160 days), mid-season (160–180 days), and late (from 180 to 240 days).
The duration of the vegetation period necessitates a transplanting method of cultivation with a preliminary plant development period of 60–80 days. The choice of variety depends on the regional climatic conditions, as a significant period of warm weather is required before the onset of frost to ensure the formation of a full-fledged root crop.
