Heirloom Buttercrunch Lettuce Planting Instructions

Sow seeds directly in early spring or fall. Plant 1/8 inch below the surface of the soil and 8 to 12 inches apart in rows spaced 12 to 18 inches apart.

For a continuous harvest, sow additional seeds every 2 to 3 weeks if cutting full heads.

Lettuce is shallow-rooted, so it is essential to avoid disrupting the soil around the plants when you weed.

Keep the plants well-watered during dry periods, making sure that you water deeply at least once a week if there is not regular rainfall. Use a layer of compost or clean straw as mulch to help the soil retain moisture.

Heirloom Buttercrunch Lettuce Harvesting Instructions:

Harvest Buttercrunch Lettuce as soon as possible after the head forms. Cut the heads off 2 inches above ground level. New leaves will continue to grow from the remaining center.

Alternatively, individual leaves can also be picked before a head forms. The earlier you harvest, the more tender the crop will be.
