It’s been hitting mid to upper 90’s and the Merlot lettuce is still going strong. I have no idea how, all the other lettuces burned up and are all gone by now. Hardy little lettuce, recommend.

That’s good to know because Merlot lettuce also very cold hardy too. Maybe they go hand in hand?

🤷‍♂️

Most of the batavian/summercrisp lettuces are good in the heat too. Muir, magenta, cherokee, etc

I had little gem and butter crunch that did great in the spring but started getting wilty and bitter as the heat climbed. The Merlot did well last fall until the frost killed it.
