The mildest flavoured and easiest to grow of the radicchios, this sugarloaf type grows light green heads that are tall and slender like an extra tall romaine. Nettuno can be grown early spring through late fall, with good tolerance to hot temperatures and resistance to tipburn. Heads are well wrapped within large outer leaves and are dense when fully mature.
Approx. 50 Seeds
Sow after the last frost date and again in mid-summer to take advantage of the fall growing season. Optimal soil temperature: 10-22°C (50-72°F). Seeds sprout in 2-15 days, depending on conditions. In hot weather plants may go to seed quickly, so have new plantings ready to go.
Either direct seed or start indoors and transplant. Sow seeds 5mm (¼”) deep, and thin or transplant to allow 30-45cm (12-18″) between plants in rows 30-45cm (12-18″) apart.
