Eden Brothers Leaf Blend Lettuce Seeds

Yes, this blend is well-suited for container gardening. Because the plants have an upright growth habit and don't require deep root systems, they thrive in pots, window boxes, or raised beds.

You can expect to harvest mature leaves in about 45 days. However, because these are fast-growing, you can begin picking smaller leaves for microgreens or baby salad greens much sooner.

These seeds perform best in full sun to partial shade. If you live in a region with very hot summers, providing some afternoon shade will help prevent the lettuce from bolting or turning bitter.

Plant the seeds at a shallow depth of about 0.32 cm. Space your plants between 4 and 16 inches apart depending on whether you want to harvest them as baby greens or allow them to reach full maturity.

These are heirloom, open-pollinated seeds. This means you can save the seeds from your best-performing plants at the end of the season to replant in the future.
