Finstar

Finstar leaf lettuce is an early-maturing Dutch variety designed for year-round cultivation, both in protected and open ground. Thanks to its high resilience and stress tolerance, it actively grows even at low temperatures and successfully withstands increased sunlight and summer heat without forming seed heads. The plant is upright, forming a voluminous rosette at least 20 cm tall with large, crisp, bright green leaves with a distinctly deeply lobed edge, making it attractive for use in salad mixes and processing.

Finstar boasts strong immunity and resistance to various diseases and adverse conditions, including sunburn, necrosis, false powdery mildew, and bolting. Its well-developed root system and elevated rosette ensure stable growth and prolonged shelf life after harvest. Rapid growth in cold conditions shortens the cultivation cycle, and the lettuce is ready for market sale within 55 days.

Suitable for hydroponic and open-ground cultivation, Finstar is a versatile solution for various production technologies. Recommended planting density is 9–12 plants per square meter, promoting optimal growth and high-quality produce. Due to its qualities, Finstar is among the top performers in protected ground lettuce markets, combining high productivity, resilience, and excellent flavor.
