Product Description
60 day. Also known as Forellenschluss, this is a beautiful red speckled, green romaine-type lettuce. It grows tall with slender leaves. I love this lettuce. It is tender and delicate, with a nice flavor. And the color is wonderful, with the bright green and contrasting red spots.
Minimum of 250 seeds per packet.
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Planting Depth: 0-1/4 inch
Plant Spacing: 3-6 inches
Row Spacing: 12-18 inches
Recommended: Direct seed in spring 2-4 weeks before last frost.
You can also start indoors and transplant when individual plants are about 3 inches tall.
In fall, plant 6-8 weeks before first frost.
Lettuce does not like heat and will get bitter and bolt (go to flower) if the temperatures are too warm. Cut off the flower stalks to extend the life of your lettuce. You can also bring indoors, if in a planter, and set in a sunny (preferably southern facing) window to extend the life of the plant.
