A packet will sow about 30 ft. of row; an ounce 250 feet. 
Culture—Lettuce grows quickly in cool seasons of the year 
and produces best in a rich, moist, cool soil. Make successive 
sowings until June and again in August and September. Head 
Lettuce should be thinned or transplanted a distance of about 
1 foot apart. The loose leaf varieties may be thinned to 4 inches 
when they come up and then every other one taken out and used 
as they get larger. Iceberg varieties are very popular for their 
crispness.
