Continuous Green Bounty
Continuity Lettuce, a cultivar originating from Europe, has gained recognition for its resilience and ability to provide continuous harvests throughout the growing season. Within the Continuity Lettuce family, there aren't distinct subspecies, but this cultivar is celebrated for its consistent and prolonged production.
The plant presents a compact, rosette-like form with loose, frilly leaves that boast shades of vibrant green, contributing to its attractive appearance in gardens. Continuity Lettuce's leaves offer a mild, sweet flavor and a tender, crisp texture, making it a favored choice for salads, sandwiches, and garnishes.
One of the distinctive features of Continuity Lettuce is its ability to yield successive harvests without bolting or turning bitter, ensuring a steady supply of fresh greens throughout the growing season.
When planting from seed, Continuity Lettuce thrives in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil with partial shade to shield it from excessive heat. Sow seeds directly into the ground or containers, maintaining consistent moisture for successful germination. Optimal germination temperature ranges between 60-70°F (15-21°C).
Regular watering and providing adequate spacing, around 6-8 inches apart, promote healthy growth and leaf development. Additionally, regular harvesting of outer leaves encourages continuous regrowth and maintains the plant's productivity.
Continuity Lettuce's ability to provide a sustained harvest without compromising flavor or texture makes it an excellent choice for both home gardeners and commercial growers seeking a consistent and reliable source of fresh, flavorful greens.

Planting & Care
Planting & Care
Soil & Water: Lettuce likes full sun except in hot summer climates where it prefers some shade, especially in the afternoon. Add plenty of compost to the soil to encourage rapid growth. Water evenly and moderately to prevent bitterness.
Planting & Growing: Start seeds indoors 4 weeks before transplanting outside, or sow seed directly as soon as the soil is workable. Make successive plantings every 10-14 days for a continuous harvest. In mild climates, lettuce can be sown from spring through fall.
Harvesting & Storage: Begin harvesting outer leaves as soon as they are large enough and continue until a central stalk begins to form, which signals the end of the harvest period. You can also harvest the entire plant when it's mature but still young and crisp.

from 9203 reviewsI grow this in old litter boxes for a bunny & Guinea pig rescue- it is a great treat! Grows fast, thick and moist. I also grow it in my catio for my cats
High quality saffron corms that shipped when they said they would. They started sprouting in my cabinet within a week so definitely plant them quickly after receiving.
They looked good when the plants arrived. Waiting for planters to transplant so they'll have more room, but not planting in the garden to avoid the mint from spreading all over. They're still alive....
Beautiful seed garlic
This tree takes a lot of patience, both in years to fully fruit out and in terms of how late in the season the peaches finally ripen, - the end of September here in zone 5b, - but boy are they amazing when they come in! I have two other peach trees, - Redhaven and Reliance, which have wonderful fruit, but these Indian Free White peaches are amazing. The aroma alone is incredible. These also have thicker skins, more "fuzz," which you can rub off, and are a bit on the acidic side, but OH so yummy! I have gotten raves from the farmers who tried them.
Been using this for last couple growing season. Works wonders for the garden.
This hose gets dragged over bark and around raised garden beds, and also over concrete and a weedy hillside to water a couple trees. So far it has performed well and there aren't any leaks or kinks!
I have not had a chance to plant these yet as it’s still a little early. Package came quickly and garlic was beautiful, can’t wait to plant it.
This is a great addition to my veg garden area!
These branch supports work well, are sturdy, and relatively cheap. While you do have to provide your own poles, you can buy wooden or metal ones of your needed length at hardware or home improvement stores. We ordered ten at first and then bought ten more after seeing how the first ones worked.
Of course I wanted a hand made wooden trug, but they are expensive! This plastic one is easy to clean, and the perfect size. I love the drainage holes.
No lightweight nonsense here! These are the one of the industry standards in tree pots and they have become our go to on the tree farm. You will find lightweight look-a-likes out there, but most only serve one time use. These have held up for years and been used multiple times in some cases.
This has become one of my new favorites for all around propagation. From seeds to cuttings we use this mix for our fig trees and have had unbelievable success. The mix is formulated for strong and fast root development. No complaints about it!
These trays are great. Everything is ready to go.
I use them for cuttings and seed starting and haven't been disappointed yet.
I had the frustration of having my dog dig up my citrus trees and figs out of their containers. I was furious. This granular repellent has stopped the dog completely. So now, the dog can stay.
