Overview

Lettuce 'Webbs Wonderful' is an old favourite with gardeners as it is consistently a reliable performer.

It is an 'Iceburg' (crisphead) type that has a large head with frilly edged leaves and a crisp tight centre.

Lettuce 'Webbs Wonderful' is very slow to bolt and so makes an excellent performer for hot or dry summers. It is ready to crop in approximately 80 days.

Site conditions Prefers well-drained, moist, rich soil.
How to sow Indoors:February to March. Sow in modules/seed trays 6mm deep. Prick out & pot on into small pots when large enough to handle. When 5-6 leaves have grown transplant outside (after a period of 'hardening off'). Space plants every 30cm in rows 30cm apart. Protect with cloche in cold periods.

Outdoors: April to July. Sow seeds thinly direct in a pre-watered drills 6mm deep with 30cm between rows. Gradually thin seedlings to one every 30cm when large enough. Give added cloche protection in cold periods until the risk of frost has passed.

For continuous supply sow every 3 weeks.
Care Keep well-watered particularly in dry periods. Try to water in the morning or mid-day as watering in the evening will increase the risk of disease. Keep weed free.
Harvest 80 days from sowing when the head feels firm when gently pressed.
