Finding an iceberg lettuce variety that suits your growing conditions and market isn’t always the easiest of tasks. Most growers will use more than one commercial variety for this reason. At Food Fair Farm in Hartbeespoort, Silvana iceberg lettuce is considered one of the most important inclusions in their commercial program – yielding uniform, dense heads perfectly suited to their consumers needs. Silvana is originally a summer iceberg variety, but has shown to be adaptable to different conditions in some areas. Be sure to speak to your area representative before planting an iceberg lettuce variety.
