LG Element

Highest disease package in its maturity bracket

  • Type: Second Early

LG Element is a new second-early variety with exceptional tolerance to downy mildew, and resistance to powdery mildew.

The variety is semi leafless, with strong quality inherited from its pedigree and is capable of very high yields, particularly when being grown on good soils. In the difficult conditions of 2016, LG Element was the highest yielding of the early varieties in trial at PGRO Nocton, and the highest overall in PGRO trials located in Holbeach.
