The most perfect head of lettuce I’ve ever grown

Bronze Arrow is the variety. These seem remarkably pest resistant!

Happy to say I didn’t do anything special. First year I’ve done lettuce in that bed, which is the best combo of hugelcutur soil and full sun I have. It’s seed from Johnny’s. The cultivar seems very hardy and ready to produce.

Does pest resistant include rats? I had some kind of critter nibbling at my romaine. Rats are my best guess.

Rabbits are more likely. Rats prefer other things.

Bugs of some kind are most likely.

I’ll fondly hope it was bunnies :D Never seen them close to here and I know we have rats :(
