PARRIS ISLAND ROMAINE LETTUCE SEEDS/250/500/1000/2000/Omega Homestead(#5B)

Description: Welcome! We sell US sourced seeds, that we trust and grow ourselves. We keep our costs low by eliminating some of the extras, like instructions (which are readily available online), and attractive seed envelopes. Add-on shipping services like tracking are not available at this time. Seeds come to us as they are shipped to you, and we are not responsible for soil or crop damage. Seeds from our own gardens are noted in the listing. We ship quickly, usually within 24 hours, excluding weekends and holidays with USPS First-class mail, in a business size envelope. Large orders may be split and shipped in more than one envelope, or multiple orders combined into one. Once shipped the speed of delivery time is out of our control, so please allow up to 10 business days to allow the postal service a little extra time while they overhaul their system. Opening a case is an automatic refund, a built-in protection for buyers, but time-consuming extra steps for both parties. If you still want the seed (if available), you will have to reorder. Satisfaction guaranteed! Sometimes things happen but we try to make it right. Please message, we are very easy to work with. Quality control: If we hear back that someone's seeds failed to germinate, we pull the listing and do our own germination test. Anything over an 80% germination rate is considered satisfactory, and the listing resumed. Our inventory is always changing, and quantities are limited. Positive feedback appreciated, we love our customers and give positive in return! Thank you.Romaine Lettuce, Parris Island is a variety of lettuce that grows in a tall head of sturdy dark leaves with firm ribs down their centers. Unlike most lettuces, it is tolerant of heat. If you want to grow romaine lettuce at home, start planting Parris Island Romaine lettuce. This is one of those times when an heirloom vegetable not only has superior flavor to commercially grown hybrids, but also produces excellent yields. This heirloom lettuce dates back to the 1950s and has been the preferred choice of romaine lettuce for organic market growers and recently has surged in popularity among home gardeners as well. It’s named after Parris Island off the coast of South Carolina. Days to Maturity: 55 to 75 days Open Pollinated: Yes (Heirloom) Height: up to 12 inches While it takes around 55 to 75 days to harvest mature heads, it can be harvested in as little as 28 days for baby lettuce, and depending on growing conditions, you can harvest individual leaves earlier than 50 days.As with all lettuce, Parris Island can be started indoors or direct sown outdoors. The best times to plant lettuce seeds are in early spring (for spring/summer harvests) and mid to late summer (for fall harvests). While you can grow lettuce in the summer, lettuce will go to seed very quickly in the summer heat, and I switch to hydroponics indoors and they do very well. There are many wonderful available resources online to help you learn more about care and harvesting this wonderful lettuce.
