About Brentwood Leaf Lettuce Seeds
Lactuca sativa
Compact, short heads have glossy, burgundy, lobed leaves with a soft texture. Eazyleaf™ lettuces were developed to have a narrow leaf attachment, making them "one-cut ready" types, meaning with one cut at the base, the leaves are the perfect size to use for salads. Good bolt resistance and disease resistant to downy mildew, lettuce leaf aphid, and Fusarium wilt.

Took a little time to start but they're growing very strong in my hydroponic unit.
Which best describes you as a gardener? IntermediateBIBotanical Interests11/7/25Hey Susanne,
Thank you so much for this fantastic 5-star review! "Growing very strong" in your hydroponic unit with that pretty color is exactly what we love to hear about Brentwood Leaf Lettuce Seeds - and we absolutely love that even though those pelleted seeds took a little time to get started, they've really taken off once they got going!
That's exactly the kind of rewarding growing experience that makes Brentwood Leaf Lettuce such garden treasures! There's nothing quite like watching pelleted seeds break through and then develop into those strong, vibrant lettuce plants with beautiful coloring, especially in hydroponic systems where you can really see their root development and growth progression!
Your pelleted seed patience and hydroponic success will be so inspiring for other growers who want to discover just how strong and colorful Brentwood Leaf Lettuce Seeds can be for creating those thriving lettuce crops that really flourish once they get established in soilless growing systems!
Keep on growing 🌻️
