Funny looking lettuce
So, this is what happens when you plant cool weather crops during the hot and humid Southern summer. It has grown tall and gaunt and is about to flower (which is not what you want from your lettuce).
The tiny bit of research you need to do will save many pitiful looking plants. The back of the seed packets will lead you to believe you can plant anything in any climate zone... not quite true. Remember that in the deep South, we do not have four seasons. Kinda have two. So the "spring" lettuce really needs to be winter lettuce here!
