Our heirloom iceberg lettuce seeds (\u003cem\u003eLactuca sativa\u003c\/em\u003e) grow into tight, crisp heads of pale green leaves that are wonderfully refreshing in salads, sandwiches, and wraps. With cool weather and a little patience, you can grow classic crunch right in your own garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreat for salad lovers and cool-season gardeners. Iceberg rewards a little care with satisfying, full heads, so it suits gardeners who enjoy the process, and it is a fun one to grow in spring or fall when the weather is on its side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow \u0026amp; when to plant\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSow iceberg lettuce seeds in cool weather, in early spring or late summer for a fall crop. Barely cover the seeds, since they need light to germinate, and keep them cool and moist; they sprout in about 7 to 10 days. Grow lettuce in full sun to part shade, thinning or spacing plants about 10 to 12 inches apart to give the heads room to form.

Keep the soil consistently moist so the leaves stay sweet and crisp, since heat and dryness turn it bitter and cause it to bolt. A little afternoon shade helps in warm regions, and even watering is the key to firm, well-formed heads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvest\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarvest iceberg once the heads feel firm and full, usually around 70 to 85 days, cutting them at the base in the cool of the morning. Pick promptly, since heads left too long in warm weather will bolt and turn bitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBenefits \u0026amp; uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrisp iceberg is a salad and sandwich classic.
