Notes
'Pint Size' lettuce (Lactuca sativa 'Pint Size') is a vegetable for containers and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It shrugs off cool spells and light frost, though a hard freeze will damage it. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It stays small at 5 to 6 inches tall and grows fast. You can harvest it about 53 days after planting.
Pairs well with Boldor beet, Long Island Mammoth dill, and Magic Bullet tomato.
