Citrine has a very high percentage large first grade fruit when grown under moderate temperatures. Fruit are uniform and have thick fruit walls. Plants are medium compact and have short internodes. Citrine has a high resistance to Pepper mild mottle race 1 and 2 (PMMoV1.2). Mature green fruit are dark green which makes it perfect for high quality green picking especially in the open field. Citrine has an excellent yield potential for a yellow variety.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outstanding Qualities<\/strong><br \/>\nVery large, blocky fruit<br \/>\nExcellent yield potential<br \/>\nDark green fruit turning to bright yellow<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special varietal requirements<\/strong><br \/>\nAlthough Citrine has a medium compact plant, trellising in the open field is suggested as fruit quality and yield can be improved significantly. The best quality fruit is formed under moderate temperature conditions and good ventilation.
