Organic Lettuce Seeds — 'Bibb Butterhead'

  Overview Lettuce is a cool weather crop. The essential base for most fresh salads, lettuce comes in a range of greens and reds, as well as different head types that offer contrasting leaf shapes and textures between tender and crispy-crunchy. Lettuce contains substantial amounts of vitamins A, C, and B6, as well as thiamin, riboflavin, calcium, and other minerals. Conditions For soil, use a fertile well-draining potting mix that’s tailored for vegetables. Lettuce thrives in cooler growing temperatures between 60–65°F, so it is best grown in the early spring or after the summer heat has passed. For the best quality leaves, provide full sun (6 or more hours of direct sunlight) without excessive heat. Planting Use our grow calendar tool to find specific dates for your region! Seeds germinate in 5-10 days. Plant seeds every 3 weeks for a continuous supply of fresh lettuce.  All of our lettuce varieties are recommended for planting directly outdoors in the garden once the soil is warm eno
