Tarzan iceberg lettuce is the modern, higher-yielding variant of the classic crispy iceberg type. Recommended for direct outdoor sowing — no need to raise seedlings indoors. 80–90 day growing time, and forms a large, closed, firm head reaching up to 1 kg average weight.
Growing
Sowing time: March–April or August, sown directly outdoors. Spacing: 40×30 cm (larger spacing needed due to head size). Sowing depth: 0.5 cm. Regular watering is needed for proper head development.
Heads are ready for harvest after 80–90 days. Typical uses: hamburgers, sandwiches, BBQ, salad dressings. The crispy iceberg is the cornerstone of countless modern lettuce recipes — Caesar salad, wedge salad, fresh slaw with a creamy dressing.
