The prizehead lettuce seeds purchased from Agway late in January have produced a nice tub of lettuce, and, I only used twelve seeds.

The package of seed, which cost me $1.19, contained three grams. Lettuce averages 600 - 1200 seeds per gram, so, I will use 800 as an average, and estimate the count at 2,400 seeds.

By anyone's standards that has to be a fantastic bargain!
