Pirat Lettuce
Lactuca sativa
Certified Organic
Microgreens Suitable
You will not be disappointed with Pirat. Soft, buttery hearts are surrounded by elegant burgundy tipped leaves. Resistance to downy mildew and bacterial rot make this butterhead a great choice for the northeast climate.
The thinnings make a great baby lettuce, but be sure to let Pirat grow to full size for the optimum lettuce experience.

Growing instructions
Sow indoors beginning 8-10 weeks before last frost, or direct sow beginning about 4 weeks before last frost. Harvest late spring and summer sowings promptly to beat bolting. Continue sowing until about 2 weeks before first fall frost. Lettuce likes steady (but not excessive) moisture and can become prematurely bitter during dry spells; keep irrigated for best-tasting leaves.
