Planting & Care

Sow Iceberg lettuce seeds directly in the garden as soon as the soil can be worked in spring, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7-14 days. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow heads to develop properly.

Provide consistent moisture and mulch to keep the soil cool. Iceberg lettuce is sensitive to heat, so provide afternoon shade in warmer climates and harvest heads when they are firm and before bolting occurs. For a continuous supply, sow seeds every 2-3 weeks in spring and fall.
