Lettuce (Summer Queen) Seeds

Lactuca sativa

Attractive semi-hearting variety with better resistance to bolting during summer weather. Frilly green leaves can be side picked as needed. Plant in rich well drained soil, sunny moist position. Ideally provide a afternoon shade during warmer weather.

Lettuce is a fast growing relatively simple salad green to grow. It's best to sow seeds into pots or punnets, cover with 3mm of soil and keep moist until germinated. Once your seedlings are 5cm high you can transplant them into a full sun or part shade position. Choose a position that is relatively fertile to ensure you get a constant harvest over a long period.
