• Versatile use: ideal for urban vegetable gardens or in open ground for regular harvests throughout the season.
• Perfect for winter and autumn dishes, when flavors concentrate and the cold reveals all their sweetness.

How to sow and grow IGOR

• Sowing: sow in a nursery bed or tray 1–2 cm deep. Maintain clear spacing between seeds to promote good root development.
• Transplanting: when seedlings reach 10–15 cm in height and after the last local frosts, transplant to their final location.
• Spacing: allow about 50–60 cm between plants and 70–90 cm between rows to allow each head to form unhindered.

• Exposure: full sun for optimal growth and firm head formation.
• Soil: fertile and well-drained, with an ideal pH between 6.0 and 7.0; enrich the soil with compost or well-decomposed manure before planting.
• Watering and maintenance: regular watering, mulching to retain moisture and limit weeds; monitor for signs of water stress in summer.
• Additional care: a balanced fertilization at planting and a light nutrient input at the end of the season support head development.

Harvesting, storage and uses

• Harvest: pick the heads when they are firm and tightly packed; the optimal period generally extends from late summer to mid-winter depending on your climate.
• Storage: keep them in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 weeks; for long-term storage, blanch briefly then freeze.
• Uses: perfect roasted in the oven, quickly sautéed or simmered in comforting dishes; their sweet flavor and firm texture make them a versatile accompaniment.

Who is it ideal for?

This IGOR variety is suitable for urban gardening enthusiasts as well as families who want regular harvests without a lot of space. Its relative tolerance to cultivation in deep pots and small gardens makes it a practical choice for family vegetable gardens, balconies and courtyards.
