ROMAINE LETTUCES
The Romaine lettuces have long leaves that, at maturity, surround a soft, crunchy heart. The tufts can achieve considerable weight—even more than 500 gr. Their cultivation environment is similar to that of the cabbage lettuce; however, they have a greater resistance to heat. The growing cycle is usually slightly longer than the cabbage lettuce. They can be grown all year round using seedlings of different varieties. From an organoleptic point of view, they have a sweet flavor and crunchy texture. They are excellent for salads, with good resistance to condiments as they remain crunchy for a long time.
