Matures in 75 Days
A butterhead type of Bibb lettuce, this variety is heat resistant and slow to bolt. It forms a loose head and is of the highest quality—similar to Bibb but larger. Leaves are delicious, delicately flavored, and have a soft, buttery texture.
Sowing:
Sow seed outdoors as early as the ground can be worked.
Plant in rows 18 inches apart, spacing seeds 1 inch apart.
Cover with ¼ inch of fine soil, well pressed down.
Keep soil moist until plants start to grow.
Thinning:
When plants are 3 to 4 inches tall, thin to 6 to 10 inches apart.
Germination:
Germinates in 7 to 10 days depending on soil and weather conditions.
Remarks:
As heads develop, cut every other one to allow others to grow.
For continuous supply, plant every few weeks throughout the season.
