Our Commitment to Quality: At RDR Seeds, we understand the importance of preserving the integrity of your seeds. That's why we use premium waterproof packaging instead of regular paper envelopes. This ensures that moisture won't ruin your seeds before you even have a chance to plant them, keeping them fresh and viable for you to enjoy.
Planting and Care Instructions:
Soil: Buttercrunch Lettuce thrives in rich, well-drained soil.
Planting: Sow the seeds ¼ inch deep and thin the seedlings to 10 inches apart. Temperatures above 75°F may prevent germination.
Sunlight: This lettuce variety prefers full sun to partial shade. Inadequate sunlight may cause the plants to grow leggy as they reach for more light.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to damping-off, which can kill the plants.
Harvest: Your Buttercrunch Lettuce will be ready to harvest in 55-70 days. Pick the outer leaves first or cut the entire head at the base.

Frequently Asked Questions:
How long are the seeds good for? Lettuce seeds generally remain viable for 2-3 years, and our premium packaging helps extend their viability by protecting them from moisture.
What conditions do these seeds thrive in? Buttercrunch Lettuce thrives in cool temperatures, ideally between 60-70°F, with well-drained, fertile soil and a neutral pH. It requires consistent moisture and can tolerate full sun to partial shade.
Will lettuce grow in warmer temperatures? Lettuce seeds can go dormant above 75°F to protect themselves from poor growing conditions. Extreme heat can also cause already grown plants to "bolt," resulting in bitter leaves.
What is the germination rate of these seeds? While germination rates may vary, almost all of our lots will have a germination rate of 85% or higher.
