[Success/Sprout] Hønsesalat Lettuce (May 04, 2021)

[ERR0R1755]

I received these seeds through the Seed Savers Exchange's ADAPT 2021 program.

Beautiful, large and vigorous Batavia type lettuce with bright green leaves and a burgundy blush. This variety came to us from Brugsen seed company in Denmark. The name translates from Danish into "chicken salad," a classic Danish open-faced sandwich with chicken, mayonnaise, lettuce, and other ingredients served on Danish rye bread.

Placed four seeds in an Oasis Horticube eS and placed it into a glass of water, no nutes added yet.

Looks like it will be a pretty lettuce!  Does it seem to be taking its time?  Growing on Hawaii Time?

I bet it is going to be beautiful. Some of those lettuces end up looking like flowers to me.
