If you want to produce a fast lettuce crop, this is the variety. The Black Seeded Simpson is an old favorite, both because of it's flavor and because of it's earliness. The full sized leaves can be harvested in just a little over a month and ""greens"" can be harvested in 3 weeks. Black Seeded Simpson has crinkled green leaves and the leaves at the center of the plant are almost white when allowed to grow to full maturity.
Lettuce is a cool season annual. Successive plantings can produce lettuce spring through fall. Plant in early spring, 3 to 4 weeks before the average last frost date, and successive plantings thereafter every 3 weeks until 5 weeks before fall frost. Lettuce likes light, fertile, moist, and well drained soils. They will grow in light shade. Lettuce grows well near cabbage, beets, carrots, chives, garlic, and onion.
