Beautiful butterhead lettuce! One of our favourite heads of lettuce to grow.
Theyβre perfectly shaped for lettuce wraps/tacos & have an incredible texture for salads.

Made this custom crimper for crop termination & bed transformation!
After crimping down the crop to lay flat, weβll water it for 1 hour & then cover it with a black tarp (for light deprivations). This creates lots of heat and humidity, which accelerates the break-down of the plant material.
About 1-2 weeks later, it will be decomposed & ready for a new planting!
Summer crops are on their way π π₯ Theyβre all so adorable right now!
