Product information "Corn salad - set of 5 pieces"
Originally, corn salad grew in its wild form on the hills throughout the French regions. Corn salad has a nutty flavor and can be eaten stewed or raw. Although the name leads us to believe otherwise, it is not a lettuce but a plant in the honeysuckle family. There are 2 types of corn salad: broadleaf and round-leaf (rose) varieties.
MEDICINAL:
Corn salad is rich in vitamins and mineral salts such as vitame C, E and B9, beta-carotene and essential fatty acids.
HARVEST AND STORAGE:
Plant corn salad weekly with smaller quantities, so you will have fresh leaves available constantly. Harvest the corn salad when the plants are about 10 cm tall.
PROBLEMS AND DISEASES:
Corn salad only has some problems with slugs and rot of the lower leaves.By sheltering the corn salad from the rain, or when growing under glass, airing it well and allowing the plant to dry out, you can prevent rot caused by the gray mold (Botrytis).
