Two Star lettuce

I like to call it All Star lettuce because that’s how it performs. It’s easy to grow and tastes great. I buy it here. Its easy to grow, sweet tasting, and I’ve never had any issues with pest.

In the square foot gardening system this is planted 4 per square. Since most lettuces will say “thin to 6 inches”, this is how you normally space this crop. However, I do grow a lettuce that says “thin to 12 inches!” It’s an amazing buttercrunch variety that I will write about as soon as it starts to get bigger so you can see for yourself.

Now is the perfect time to begin planting for the summer garden. Peppers, tomatoes, basil, carrots, etc. are all the things I’m planting now, along with a continual supply of lettuce. 

Lettuce is tricky to grow in the warm summer months. Unless you know a few tips, it’s going to be difficult to do. My newest ebook talks all about how to grow it through the heat of the summer. I’ve been doing it for almost 2 decades.[ois skin=”1″]
