This butterhead variety grows quickly and thrives in warm weather. The deep green leaves are smooth and tender, forming large heads that are perfect for fresh salads and wraps.Quantity:Appx. 250 SeedsTo Grow:Sow outside 2-4 weeks before average last frost. Start indoors 4-5 weeks before last frost or in late summer for fall planting. For continuous harvest, stagger plantings every 2-3 weeks.Additional Tips:Lettuce likes cool weather and lots of moisture in rich, well drained soil. Transplanting should only be done in cool, preferably cloudy weather.To extend harvest in warmer months, choose bolt-resistant varieties and plant lettuce where it will receive afternoon shade or cover with a shade cloth.The key to growing crisp, sweet lettuce is to get it growing at a fast pace. That means plenty of water, and a healthy dose of nitrogen-rich fertilizer.Harvesting:You can pick lettuce leaves as soon as they are big enough to use. Harvest outer leaves first for continually growth. For leaf lettuce, use a knife or sharp shears to cut the leaves straight across. Leave at least 1” at the base for regrowth. We recommend harvesting your lettuce early in the morning so the leaves or heads will still be nice and crisp.Companion Plants:Plant with dill, beets, broccoli, beans, cucumbers, onions, radishes.ABOUT OUR SEEDS:• Non-GMO• US grown• Open-pollinated• Untreated• Tested regularly to ensure they meet the highest germination standards• Include full, detailed growing instructionsAll of our seeds are professionally packed in ecofriendly resealable, full color packets made from recycled content and printed with vegetable-based ink (see photos).
