I think I have found a type of lettuce that will grow and not bolt when the temps reach the 90's ane 100's!
In the early spring I threw some lettuce seeds I had gathered a couple of years ago. They were hanging in a grocery bag in the storage/laundry room. I wasn't sure they were any good, so I just threw them out there, and if they grew they grew, and if they didn't no big deal.
Well, I think the seeds pretty much all gerninated! I have lettuce all over the place in my front garden beds! And it is still producing nice sweet lettuce! And we have hit 100 in the past couple of weeks! I hope to get some seed from these plants.
They are a deeply lobed leaf lettuce, I don't know the name of it. But it is growing very nicely!
