I am planting some more seeds since I am experiencing good weather here in Georgia. I have a seed packet that I had ordered in bulk on ebay and all it saids on it is "Salad Bowl Lettuce". I heard that this lettuce is supposed to be heat resistant and can grow in the summer. Is this true? Is there a real name for this type of lettuce?
 
I'm not sure if it's the same in the US but this type of lettuce is a loose leaf variety not a hearting type (iceberg) . I grow it all the time during the hot and humid summer months and it thrives. I can only grow the hearting type here in autumn and early spring.
 
Thanks Wombat...sounds like I may be growing the same kind. They have already sprouted (in about 3 days) and are obviously taking well to the heat.
