Advice & Tips
Written By The Weekly Bean

By Brenda Weaver

The leaf lettuces are ideal for containers; pick the outer leaves and let the center continue to grow. This is called "cut and come again" harvesting. Head lettuces like Romaine, Bibb and Crisphead need to grow about 50 days to harvest, so plan for those to grow in-ground.

Bibb: Buttercrunch, Speckles, Summer Bibb, Summer Bibb Blend

Crisphead: Michelle

Leaf: Black Seeded Simpson, Green Salad Bowl, Red Deer Tongue

Romaine: Little Gem, Parris Island Cos
