It grows best at 60–65°F (16–18°C) and germinates best below 70°F (21°C), so careful variety selection is key for success in hotter weather. Sow every 2–3 weeks for a continuous supply of either full heads or salad mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePELLETED SEED:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePelleted seed requires a little extra attention when it comes to watering, as it performs best with consistent, moderate soil moisture throughout the germination period. An initial watering will split or dissolve the pellet, but if the soil is allowed to dry out before the germination period is over, the seed may receive insufficient moisture for optimal germination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePELLET STORAGE:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePelleting offers many advantages, but the pelleting process also shortens the shelf life of the seed. We recommend using pelleted seed within one year of purchase. If you need to store pelleted seeds until planting, protect them from heat and humidity in a cool, dark, dry place. If you prefer to store your seed in the refrigerator, be sure to place the seed in an air-tight container to protect it from fluctuations in humidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTHERMAL DORMANCY:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLettuce seed can enter thermal dormancy when exposed to high temperatures. Optimum germination results at soil temperatures of 60–68°F (15.5–20°C). The priming process in pelleted lettuce seeds broadens the temperature range in which the seeds will germinate, overcoming some of their thermal dormancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHARVEST:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHead Lettuce: Cut at base, keeping wrapper leaves for handling loss. Consider cutting alternating plants to extend harvest window, allowing remaining plants to continue to grow. Pack heads in layers facing cut ends away. Wash off sap and cool immediately to prevent staining and dehydration. Baby Leaf: Harvest about 1\" above the growing point when leaves reach desired harvestable length, about 3–4\" long. Remove harvest debris to improve regrowth quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSTORAGE:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep cold at 35–40°F (1–4°C) with high humidity but free of standing water. Head Lettuce: Keep 14–20 days, less for delicate types like butterhead and oakleaf, and longer for lettuce grown slowly in cooler temperatures. For one-cut types, extend season in cold weather by holding cut heads in cooler up to two weeks to process into salad mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMT0-30 SEEDS:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA variety's description followed by \"MT0-30\" indicates that the seed offered for sale has been tested for the presence of Lettuce Mosaic Virus and that no LMV was found in a sample of at least 30,000 seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDAYS TO MATURITY:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHead Lettuce: from transplant; Baby Leaf: from direct seeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAVG.
