Lettuce (Dhansiri) Seeds – Premium Green Oakleaf Lettuce Variety for Winter Cultivation
🌿 Product Description
Lettuce (Dhansiri) is a premium Green Oakleaf Lettuce variety that produces large, dense rosettes of soft, tender, deeply lobed green leaves with exceptional freshness and flavour. This variety is specially developed for outdoor cultivation and performs exceptionally well during the winter growing season, delivering uniform growth, high yields, and premium-quality leaves.
The attractive oakleaf-shaped foliage is crisp, delicate, and mildly sweet, making it ideal for fresh salads, sandwiches, wraps, burgers, and gourmet dishes. The plants form compact yet vigorous rosettes that continue producing tender leaves over an extended harvesting period.
Lettuce (Dhansiri) grows best at an optimum temperature of 20–25°C. Unlike many vegetable crops, lettuce seeds require light for germination, so the seeds should be sown on the soil surface without covering them after sowing. This variety thrives in fertile, well-drained soils with consistent moisture, ensuring healthy leaf development and excellent marketable quality.
Suitable for home gardens, kitchen gardens, commercial vegetable farming, hydroponic systems, greenhouse production, and organic cultivation, Lettuce (Dhansiri) is an excellent choice for growers seeking premium-quality leafy vegetables with outstanding taste and appearance.
