This is a tried and true MIgardener favorite! This variety has a texture unlike any other lettuce around. The texture is caused by hundreds of crinkles in the leaves. The lettuce is cold hardy and can overwinter without any protection. Light green crinkled leaves often cause this lettuce to be confused with the endive. Not as heat tolerant as other varieties but makes up for it by how successful it is in the cold. Grows great in full sun or partial sun and grows well in containers.
Excited to use this new lettuce in my garden. I’ve heard great things about it.
One of my favorites!
Still too early to germinate . I don’t know how the plants will be
So far it looks like it will be a crispy leaf! I'm still gardening in December with my hydroponic system. My son and I enjoy crispy lettuce. I don't think we'll be disappointed. Can't wait to plant this out in the garden once spring arrives but in the meantime, we'll enjoy some lettuce on our sandwiches.
Love this lettuce! Grows well here in zone 8b.
I just planted them and they look beautiful so far
Excellent Germination!
One of my favorite things to grow is spinach, I grow mostly in containers so I like to try and get as much as possible out of my small garden. This variety definitely does that. I get massive leaves and fill up a gallon sized ziplock bag relatively quickly every week when the harvest begins.
Germination went very well, popped up within a few days. Growing well!
Nice I like it. Its perfect
