Leda Crisphead lettuce is a unique and flavorful variety of lettuce that is characterized by its dense, compact head and crispy texture. What sets Leda Crisphead apart from other lettuce varieties is its ability to retain its crispness and flavor even after being stored for several days, making it an ideal choice for salads, sandwiches, and other dishes.
Another unique characteristic of Leda Crisphead lettuce is its ability to thrive in cooler temperatures, making it an excellent choice for gardeners in cooler climates or those looking to extend their growing season into the fall and winter months. It is also a very disease-resistant plant, making it easy to grow and maintain.
Leda Crisphead lettuce is a great source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, and iron. It is low in calories and high in fiber, making it a great choice for those looking to maintain a healthy diet.

We grow with the seasons! So in most climates, you will be able to grow year round. Typically most lettuce can handle the cooler temperatures and tend to look for the shade in the hotter temperatures.
You want to be aware of the extreme temperature ranges in your region. If you follow the guidelines below, you will be safe:
COLD CLIMATES
- If you live in a location where the temperatures dip below freezing, then you will want to wait until night temperatures are in the 40's consistently.
- On the occasional dips into the 30's, you can cover with a sheet or bring them indoors for that time period. The breeze is good for plants and helps to keep bugs at bay so growing outdoors is optimal.
WARM CLIMATES:
- If you live where it reaches above 90 degrees consistently, you'll want to grow heat tolerant fruiting plants (tomatoes and peppers) and herbs (basil, mint, rosemary) primarily.
To find out what extreme temperatures your location experiences, check out the USDA zone for your region.
