Lactuca sativa
Days to Maturity: 40-50
A long-standing heirloom since at least the late 1800s, Prizehead is a real winner with its ruffled green leaves tipped in rosy bronze. This hardy lettuce is known for its crisp texture, mild sweetness, and reliable harvests even as temperatures warm. Perfect for cut-and-come-again picking, Prizehead fills salads with fresh color and crunch from spring through fall.
Planting Instructions: Sow Prizehead Lettuce seeds outdoors in early spring through early fall, every 3 weeks. Sprinkle 1/4" soil on top, keep evenly moist until germinated.
Seed Saving Instructions: Allow most vigorous and tastiest plants to bolt & flower. Collect seed when white fluffs form from the flowerheads. Store seeds in a paper or mesh bag in a cool, dark and dry location.
Approx 400 Prizehead Lettuce seeds per packet
