Flashy Butter Oak Leaf Lettuce

• Growing Season: Year Round (in mild climates)
• First Harvest: You may start picking leafs as soon as there are at least 3 mature leaves (4-5" long), which takes about 3-4 weeks. Always keep at least 3 leaves on plant for vegetative growth to continue.
• Final Harvest: 5-8 weeks

Most leafy greens like the cooler temperatures, but they can generally grow year-round. You want to be aware of the extreme temperature ranges in your region. Refer to the guidelines below:

COLD CLIMATES

• If you live in a location where the temperatures dip below freezing, hold off on growing until night temperatures are consistently in the 40's.
• On the occasional dips into the 30's, you can cover your seedlings with a sheet overnight.

WARM CLIMATES:

• If you regularly experience temperatures above 90 degrees, you may want to focus on herbs and heat-tolerant fruiting plants (tomatoes and peppers) instead.

To find out what extreme temperatures your location experiences, check out the USDA zone for your region.

• Best Planted Wall Placement: Near the top in cooler temperatures (to maximize sun exposure), near the bottom when it's hot (for shade).
