Agronomic Tips
- Environment: Heated glasshouses Season: suitable to the same crop cycles where Merlice is well adapted. Can be grown year-round where summer conditions are not extreme (i.e. BC, Quebec). Suitable for Artificial light crops. Head density: Common head density seen in commercial crops varies from 2.5 to 3.6 heads/m2. Has shown no blind heads present in 2 crop cycles of development. Truss support is a must for its large fruit size.
