Lettuce
      LETTUCE        
LEAF TYPES: Plant in early spring as soon as soil can be tilled. Place seeds 1/4" deep, 1" apart. For a                       
constant supply, sow lettuce every 2 weeks for as long as weather stays cool. To harvest, cut leaf lettuce, 1-2"
above ground. Use fresh in salads, wilted lettuce or in sandwiches. For leaf or head lettuce, you will need 1/2 oz
seed per 100' row or 30,000 plants per acre if transplanted or  1 pound of seed if direct seeded.  PKT size; Green
Ice, Simpson Elite & Summertime 1/8 oz. Rest 1/4 oz.
