What's nutritious about eating "local" Suncrest® Lettuce?
Nutritional values in lettuce are mostly a function of nutrients and light. Suncrest's hydroponic nutrient recipe includes 17 naturally occurring macro and micro nutrients, ratio-balanced for optimal growth and nutrition.
Notice how green our lettuce leaves are! Compared to lettuce that is pale or white at the core, our solid green leaves indicate a higher nutritional value — an added bonus to the freshness that comes from growing locally.
Suncrest™ lettuce is 100% free of synthetic pesticides and GMOs. We say synthetic, because, like organic growers we do use natural sprays on occasion to repel insects.
