Note on Lettuce Germination 
The difficulty, during hot weather, in securing good ger¬ 
mination of seed may be overcome by soaking the seed in 
water for 15 or 20 minutes. Drain off the water and place the 
seed in a refrigerator. In 36 to 48 hours the seed should have 
small sprouts and be ready for planting.
