Why is my lettuce growing tall?
Most lettuce varieties are cool season crops. When the hot weather comes, they send up tall stalks that will flower and set seed. You'll notice that the leaves begin to taste bitter around the same time the stalks elongate. This is called bolting.
When should I save lettuce seeds?
You'll know it's time to harvest lettuce seeds when the flower head turns yellow, or dries out, and the white cotton puffs come out around the top. If you're still unsure, gently tug at one of the white puffs. If they are ready, the seeds will come out with very little effort.
How do I stop my lettuce from bolting?
If you plant lettuce late and wish to avoid premature lettuce bolt, try using a shade cloth over the row to reduce the intensity of the light. Additionally, it is essential to fertilize new plants with a 10-10-10 fertilizer. Make sure the plants receive plenty of moisture.
