Supplied as a packet of approximately 250 seeds.

Our very careful evaluation reveals the problem and needs of the home gardener sowing just one variety of lettuce is that often 50% or more that are grown are wasted as they all come at once - fine for the commercial grower who wants to clear his crop!

Our blend of 15 distinct varieties includes old fashioned Buttercrunch types, so called Iceberg or the crisp traditional Webbs Wonderful, Cos, Loose Leafed, Red Lettuce and Batavian types.

Sown in the open ground, or trays and transplanted, you will have from one sowing cropping spread over 8-9 weeks. Also ideal for salad leaf production as you can keep picking the young leaves. You will like this selection.

For Early Crops
Sow under protection in seed trays January to March and lightly cover seed.
Prick out (transplant) into modules or small pots when large enough to handle and grow on under protection.
Plant outside after fear of frost, setting out 12" (30 cm) apart in rows 12" (30 cm).

For Main Season Crops
Sow thinly in ½" (1 cm) deep drills 12" (30 cm) apart.
Thin out to one plant per 12" (30 cm) when large enough to handle (eat the thinnings of course!).

For Later Crops
Sow October and transplant to protected growing - cloches, greenhouse or similar - for harvesting in early Spring.

Top Tips
Sow every 2 - 3 weeks to ensure a succession of lettuces throughout the Summer and early Autumn.
Sowings between September and March are best done under protection.
Through the late Autumn and over-winter plants can still be planted outside, though will mature quicker if grown under protection.

Supplied as a packet of approximately 250 seeds.
