As one of the first loose leaf lettuce varieties to gain popularity commercially, Green Ice lettuce remains an excellent choice for your home veg garden. The leaves are attractively frilly, and like other loose leaf varieties, it’s more tolerant of warm weather than the head lettuces. Plus, you get an ongoing supply of leaves even before it’s 45-day maturity. There’s nothing better than a garden-fresh salad, and Green Ice is the perfect salad standby.

  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Because the small seeds have to be sown quite shallowly, it will be easier to keep seeds moist during germination if sown in trays. Alternatively, sow a few seeds in planting stations at the correct spacing and thin after germination. Sprinkle a little loose soil over the seeds till they are no longer visible and keep moist.

    How to Harvest

    As soon as the outer leaves reach a good size, you can begin cutting them for use. Pick during the coolest times of the day for best crunchiness. If you harvest a whole head, leave about 3cm of stem – it may resprout.

    I have not tried in hot weather as yet but so far I'm enjoying the high germination rate and soft sweet leaves.
