Moscow Greenhouse lettuce is an early-leaf variety that reaches maturity in an average of 35-40 days. The plant forms a semi-erect rosette with a diameter of 22-27 cm, featuring pale green, entire-edge leaves of an oval shape with medium blisteriness. The leaves have a tender, oily texture and a soft taste without bitterness, making this variety particularly attractive for fresh consumption.
This variety is characterized by high speed of maturity and versatility in cultivation. It is suitable for both open ground and greenhouses and cold frames, where it demonstrates resistance to bolting and allows for multiple leaf cuttings. To obtain a continuous harvest, open ground sowing is recommended from April to August, while seeds for seedlings are sown in March-April followed by transplanting in May-June. Seed planting depth varies from 0.5 to 2 cm depending on the cultivation method.
The mass of one plant ranges from 70-200 g, while the commercial yield reaches 2.5-4.1 kg per square meter. Due to its characteristics, Moscow Greenhouse lettuce is ideal for cultivation in greenhouse and cold frame conditions, ensuring a stable and quality harvest with tender, juicy leaves that are valued for their excellent taste and lack of bitterness.
