SOWING: Start early indoors or seed directly outdoors from early to mid-spring. Sow again in late summer for fall crop. Barely cover seed with 1/8 inch fine soil.
SPACING: Leave 18 inches between rows. For bedding in small areas, space 10 to 12 inches apart in all directions.
GERMINATION: Approximately one week to ten days. Start seed in cool 55 to 60 degree temperatures. Keep soil moderately moist during germination.
Ed’s Special Advice: Keep soil moderately moist. Well-fertilized soil produces quickly grown, sweet, crisp lettuce. Sow seeds every two weeks March to August for continued harvesting. Grows best during the cooler part of the growing season. Can be grown under cloches or cold frames in mild winter areas.
SEED SAVING: Allow plant to flower, then collect seed heads as they dry. Store in a cool dry place.
