About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
An early F1 hybrid for the first summer harvest, which you start indoors from February and set out into the bed under fleece from April. It matures quickly and evenly, so you can cut several plants at almost the same time. The leaves cover the curd only moderately, so in full sun you bend a few leaves over the head to keep it white.
Mild and juicy with a tender texture, typical of early harvested heads. Good lightly steamed or raw as a crudite.
