Firmino Mascherano is a large iceberg lettuce suited for summer production. It forms well-shaped heads and demonstrates strong resistance to both internal tipburn and bolting. This variety matures slower than other summer lettuces, making it ideal for heavier soils where faster-growing types might produce smaller, looser heads.
Slower growth in summer
Suitable for heavy soil
Produces smaller, compact types in heavy soil conditions
Minimum of 55 000 plants/ha up to a maximum of 85 000 plants/ha
