Lactuca sativaThe curled and crinkled foliage adds a unique look and texture to salads, but the reason we really love ‘Goldrush’ is because it doesn’t bolt to seed as quickly as other varieties, so there’s plenty of time to enjoy it, especially in autumn and spring.

The best lettuces are grown fast. Grow them in beds that have just been vacated by peas or beans as all leaf crops, especially lettuce, enjoy plenty of nitrogen. Loose soil with plenty of organic matter will retain moisture and added potash will see them grow without check. Premature bolting and subsequent bitterness is usually the result of stress caused by poor transplanting techniques, damage to their shallow roots, lack of fertilizer or lack of water during hot periods. Mulch well to conserve moisture.
