The mild, sweet flavor and delicate texture make these ideal for gourmet salads. Store harvested lettuce in the refrigerator for up to a week.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eButterhead lettuce thrives in cool weather and rich, well-drained soil. Water consistently – about 1 inch per week – to prevent bitterness and bolting. Mulch to conserve moisture and keep roots cool. Plant in early spring or late summer to avoid hot weather, which causes bolting and bitter flavor. Provide afternoon shade in warmer climates. Practice succession planting every 2 weeks for continuous harvest. Companion plant with radishes, carrots, or herbs for optimal garden health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose Butterhead Lettuce\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis premium variety offers exceptional tenderness, sweet flavor, and beautiful presentation that elevates any salad or sandwich.
