Seed Count

This heat-resistant, long-standing leaf lettuce produces large rosettes (indistinct heads) of oakleaf-shaped, dark-green leaves with thick midribs. Its tender leaves resist turning bitter even in hot temperatures.

Looseleaf type lettuces do not form a compact head, and are cultivated for the tender, delicate leaves which grow from a central stalk. They usually reach maturity between 45-55 days after germination, though larger leaves can be collected throughout the growth cycle. Like other lettuces, looseleaf types can be sensitive to excessive heat and light, which may result in bolting, or wilting leaves. This variety is commonly used in salads and sandwiches. Space plants 6" apart, with 12" between rows.

LETTUCE

Nothing tastes better than a fresh, crisp salad made with lettuce straight from the garden. Head lettuces are lettuce varieties that form together like a cabbage such as Romaine and Iceberg. Home grown lettuce tends to be higher in flavor and nutrients than the store-bought variety, and can be very easy to grow yourself. Lettuce likes a lot of water and prefers cool growing conditions, as it can bolt in higher temperatures. Keep an eye on your lettuce plants during warmer weather, if the leaves are wilting, you’ll need to move them to a shady spot immediately. Growing nasturtiums near your lettuce can naturally help keep damaging aphids away.
