This is the classic and highly popular variety that forms a solid head with a crunchy texture. The compact, medium-size heads are made up of light green to white inner leaves with a mild flavor. The outer leaves are medium green and crinkled. For best flavor and development of firm heads, time crops to mature during cool weather.

Sowing: Head lettuce is best handled as transplants Sow indoors in early spring and shift to garden in mid-spring and shift to garden in mid-spring. Sow again in late summer for a fall crop. If direct sowing, cover 1/4" (6mm).
Care: Water regularly and fertilize when 3"(7.5cm) tall. Provide light shade for summer sowing.
Harvest: Cut entire head when firm. Do not wait for outer leave to change color.
Your Health: Rich in fiber and potassium, with moderate amount of vitamin A.
