This is my favorite lettuce, as detailed in my Forgotten Skills book. In my garden, this lettuce comes back year after year if grown on ground you don’t till. It is not a true perennial but it self-seeds extremely reliably if you don’t eat it all and let a few heads go to seed. Dwarf sized, green leaves, one of the first to self-seed in spring, usually in late April or early May. Grows fast. Works well for fresh winter garden growing as well as summer. A very reliable self-seeder! Annual. Free shipping on orders over $32. 150 heirloom seeds. Heirloom, natural, chemical-free seeds.

NUTRITION INFO: Buttercrunch lettuce provides 130%DV (daily value) of Vitamin A, 6%DV Vitamin C, 5%DV potassium, 4%DV dietary fiber, 4%DV iron, and 2%DV calcium.

HOW TO GROW: Press soil onto soil as soon as the ground can ber worked in spring, or anytime in spring or autumn. Plant in shad for summer starting. Keeping moist until germination, which may take two weeks, or longer in early spring. Harvest the outer leaves for continual harvest, or the whole head. Plant seeds four inches apart. Some people might say this is too close together, but if you are harvesting for eating, this spacing is ideal.
