Corn salad 'Grote Noord-Hollandse'

Product number: 310200
Origin: Europe
Latin: Valerianella locusta

Fast-growing variety with large, elongated leaves. This variety does not freeze quickly, especially if good protection by means of glass is provided in winter.
This traditional North Holland variety was also called "hare's ears" because of its long leaves. Very densely sown corn salad, harvested young (when the cotyledon is "stretched"), is a delicacy and is called "BROEIVET" (forced fat).

Hardy vegetable with a high vitamin C content.

Sowing method: Mid-August - end of September outdoors. In a mild winter, can be sown under glass until March. From April, ventilate or remove the glass. Row distance 15 cm, sow thinly at 0.5 cm depth, press down the seeds and keep well moist. Sowing from April - August is also possible, preferably in (press) pots. However, the chance of mold is then greater.
