Quick Facts (Grow Guide)

Botanical name Lactuca sativa — ‘Prizehead’ (leaf lettuce)
Sun Full sun to part shade (afternoon shade in heat)
Sowing method Direct sow cool soil or start indoors 3–4 weeks pre-transplant; lettuce seed prefers light — sow very shallowly and keep moist
Sowing depth ⅛″ / 3 mm (light cover or press onto surface)
Spacing 10–12″ / 25–30 cm for heads; rows 12–18″ / 30–45 cm (denser for baby leaf)
Germination ~7–14 days at ~60–70°F / 16–21°C (cool soils sprout best)
Soil Moist, well-drained, moderately fertile; even moisture keeps leaves sweet
Harvest Baby leaf ~25–30 days; full, loose heads ~45–55. Pick outer leaves or cut whole rosette.

Ways to Use

  • Salads & bowls: fluffy texture with gentle sweetness.
  • Wraps & sandwiches: broad leaves that cradle fillings.
  • Mixes: pair with romaine or herbs for color and lift.

What You’ll Receive

Pro tip: Succession-sow every 2–3 weeks for a steady supply. Provide afternoon shade and even moisture as temps rise to reduce bolting and bitterness. Don’t bury the crown when transplanting.
