Hercules lettuce is a medium-early Batavia type variety with a vegetative period of 65 to 75 days. This variety is intended for cultivation in open ground, making it suitable for various climatic conditions and seasonal plantings. The average plant height ensures ease of care and harvest.
The plant forms a large head with upright leaf growth. The leaves of Hercules lettuce are solid, large, dark green, and have a strongly wavy structure with curled edges, giving them an attractive appearance and enhancing flavor. This leaf structure promotes good ventilation and reduces the risk of diseases.
One of the key advantages of this variety is its resistance to bolting, which allows it to retain its marketable appearance and leaf quality for a longer period. This makes Hercules lettuce a reliable choice for both amateur and commercial cultivation, ensuring a stable and high-quality yield.
