WEST COAST SEEDS LETTUCE ICEBURG DILLON
Dillon Organic lettuce seeds are CERTIFIED ORGANIC. This small, compact iceberg as tasty, crisp, refreshing dark outer leaves, and a creamy green interior. Its iceberg-type heads are well filled and dense.

  • This lettuce has such a nice, crunchy texture, and enough water content that it is genuinely refreshing in a sandwich or burger. It was a popular hit in our field trials.
  • Matures in 45 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
  • Season: Cool Season
  • Exposure: Full sun to partial shade

    Growing Lettuce from Seed

  • Lettuce grows best in cool weather in the spring and fall, but it can be grown in the summer, and all winter long in milder regions.
  • Sow short rows every 2-3 weeks following the last average frost date for a continual harvest.
  • Using a cloche, cold frame, or greenhouse over mid-late summer plantings can extend the harvest period right into winter.
  • Optimal soil temperature for germination: 10-22°C (50-72°F). Seeds should sprout in 7-15 days, depending on conditions. Lettuce seeds don't sprout easily when the soil temperature is over 22°C (72°F) in summer.


    Companion Planting For Lettuce

  • Lettuce plants make good companions for beets, Brassicas, carrot, celery, chervil, cucumbers, dill, garlic, onions, radish, spinach, squash, and strawberries.
