Speckled Butterhead is a medium, dense butterhead with a sweet central heart and burgundy speckles over bright green leaves. Sow 1/4" deep, 1" apart outdoors, then thin to 6-12" for baby to full heads; seed sprouts in 4-10 days at 60-70ºF soil.
Each right-sized packet holds 300 seeds and plants a 25-40 foot row. Sow outdoors in spring once soil reaches 50ºF and repeat every 2-3 weeks, keeping soil moist until sprouted.
