Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is designed for automated systems and vertical farms, characterized by a high growth rate with a cycle from planting to harvest of 21–28 days. The crop features curly leaves, a crunchy texture, and a sweetish taste, forming uniform heads suitable for machine packaging.

The plant demonstrates high yield potential under intensive planting density and possesses improved resistance to tip burn, which allows for cultivation at elevated temperatures and under intense lighting. The variety is also distinguished by good keeping quality after harvest and a low level of nitrate accumulation.
