Description: Wild Lettuce (Lactuca virosa), grown medicinally for the milky white sap that oozes from the plant when cut or broken. Every order will receive 20 or more, non-GMO seeds grown and harvested late summer of 2019. Germination and Growing instructions: Scatter seeds on moist soil, and press them lightly into the soil. Do NOT cover the seeds as Lactuca needs sunlight to germinate. Germination takes 5 days to two weeks. Transplant seedlings to rich, moist soil and full sun, spacing them 2 ft apart. Wild Lettuce is a biennial, which means in the first year it will make a rosette of leaves, and in the second year the flower stalk(s) will shoot up in early to mid summer to 4-6ft and produce seeds in late summer/early fall. If you're lucky, it will make seeds the first year. Wild Lettuce is hardy to zone 6 (-10F/-23C).
