That's what I imagine one head lettuce said to the other right before they bolted.In hot weather lettuce bolts or begins to produce seeds, making the lettuce too bitter to eat. We had a few days of unseasonably warm weather two weeks ago which brought about the end of our head lettuce season. Organic Gardening offers the tip:
To extend your growing season, plant lettuce between or under larger plants to shade it from strong sun. (http://www.organicgardeing.com/)
