Prizehead Heirloom Lettuce
Growing Prizehead Heirloom Lettuce
‘Prizehead’ is a classic heirloom looseleaf lettuce (and our 2022 Free Seed Giveaway) prized for its vigorous growth, crisp-sweet flavor, and colorful foliage. Large curly green leaves develop attractive bronze-red shading along the outer margins, creating an edible crop that is as attractive as it is flavorful.
Start ‘Prizehead’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ⅛ inch deep and space plants 8 to 10 inches apart. Grow in full sun to partial shade. This cold-tolerant variety is well suited to containers and hydroponic growing.
Ready to harvest in about 50 days, pick individual leaves at the size you prefer, choosing younger growth for the most tender texture.
Crisp, sweet, and colorful, ‘Prizehead’ is excellent for fresh eating, salads, sandwiches, wraps, and mixed greens.
