Description
The best selection of Treviso red chicory late winter TT 1606 for winter harvest. Harvest cycle of about 130 days. Good resistance to low temperatures. Unmatched sweet flavor and crunchiness, typical of the “king of radicchios”.
Growing Tips
Orto Mio guidelines for the species, to be adapted to the variety, local climate, and cultivation in soil or pots.
Exposure and Temperature
Sun, tolerating summer partial shade. Optimal growth at 15–20 °C; late radicchios withstand cold better. Strong temperature fluctuations favor pre-flowering.
Soil and Transplanting
Fertile and draining soil, pH 6–7. Generally 25–35 cm in-row and 40 cm between rows. Leave one-third of the cube above the soil. The correct timing depends on the variety's cycle and the expected harvest.
Watering
Regular watering in summer, less frequent than for lettuce. Wait for the surface to dry. In autumn, water moderately only if necessary; avoid waterlogging.
Fertilization
Moderate nutrition, without excess nitrogen. For late varieties, prioritize potassium and suspend fertilization one month before harvest.
Care and Harvesting
Weed and protect during cold transplanting. Self-closing radicchios are ready when the heart is full and firm. Cycle, possible tying, and forcing should be evaluated for each specific type.
