Eden Brothers Lettuce Seeds Salad Bowl

Salad Bowl is specifically bred to be slow-to-bolt and heat tolerant. While no lettuce thrives in extreme mid-summer heat, this variety holds its flavor and texture longer than most, allowing you to extend your harvest into warmer weather.

Yes, this variety is excellent for container gardening. Because it grows to a mature height of about 8 inches, it works perfectly in pots, window boxes, or raised beds.

You can expect to harvest your first greens between 30 and 60 days after planting. Because it is a leaf lettuce, you can harvest individual outer leaves as needed, which encourages the plant to keep producing.

It is versatile and thrives in both full sun and partial shade. In cooler climates, full sun is ideal, but if you are gardening in a warmer region, providing some afternoon shade will help prevent the plant from bolting.

Plant the seeds at a shallow depth of 0.125 inches. Lettuce seeds need a little bit of light to germinate properly, so be careful not to bury them too deeply.
