LETTUCE DEREL

4770168142398

Medium early (iceberg) lettuce type variety. The hybrid is popular not only for its excellent taste, but also for exceptional colour. Plants are red outside, light green inside, weighing 600g. The variety is valued for its crispy, very tasty leaves which are not bitter. Lettuce stays fresh for longer periods after cutting, in a refrigerator at + 3-5 ºC. Cultivated for spring, summer and autumn harvest, in open field and in greenhouses. Lettuce seedlings are planted in a permanent place when they develop 5-6 true leaves. Space them at 20 x 25 cm, and replant not deeper than previously. For early harvest, recommended to grow lettuce seedlings. When sowing directly into the soil, thinning is recommended. This will produce a bigger head of leaves and higher yield. Harvested after 65-75 days. 1.0g contains about 800-1000 seeds.
