SUMMER CRISP LETTUCE
Lettuce is a cool weather crop that is be planted in the spring as early the ground can be worked and then sown at two week intervals through late spring or early summer depending on the climate. Use heat resistant varieties (like the Summer Crisps) for the later sowings. Fall crops can be begun in mid summer in cool areas--or late summer in hot climates. Loose-leaf varieties are thinned to 4-inches apart, romaine and head lettuce to 1-foot apart. We highly recommend all our Summer Crisp varieties. Packet is 1/2 gram, about 400 seeds.
