    Baby Cos Lettuce

    Hi all
    Wondered if anyone can help with how to access baby cos lettuce seeds.
    They are a minature of the standard cos lettuce.
    The ones we buy are packed in a cellophane bag by a large supermarket chain with no grower details on the package.
    I have tried the seed catalogues to no avail.
    Are you out there fishfood? If anyone knows you probably will (hopefully)
    Regards
    Jan

    If the way it is branded is correct i would assume that it is just young leaves of the standard cos. You could try planting standard cos at very close spacing. Of course, I could be wrong.

    Hi John
    They are actually a full minature lettuce, not leaves.
    Thanks for your input

    Hi Shane and Shayne,

    Thanks for your responses......I'll pass the message to Bear. She prefers them to other lettuce......and so do I.
