Super Gourmet Salad Blend
A blend of five very popular lettuce varieties in equal quantities: a buttercrunch, a red-leaf, a Romaine, and two pretty green-leaf lettuces. Even as seedlings, their appearance is quite different and they can be easily thinned to your chosen proportions in the row. Sow small amounts regularly for a continuous harvest. Pretty enough for the flower garden; this is the famous "lettuce blend!"
Matures in 60-80 days. (open pollinated seeds)
The word says it all...Super...

We grow this blend starting in Febuary! I bought a old wheel barrel at a garage sale and punch holes in the bottom for dranage then fill it with compost and mushroom manure. Spinkle it with SGSB and fine mist of water. Put a clear plastic on top and bring it inside to a warm place. Voilà 90 percent of the seed germinate! I then move it in and outside when the weather is warm and put on a south wall. I once took the wheel barrle it to a potluck and serve Fresh salad. This year I am going to grow it all winter undr plastic cloche |
