Crisp, Mild & Classic:
A timeless garden staple, Iceberg lettuce is loved for its neutral flavor and firm texture. The dense, layered heads make it perfect for wedge-style salads and adding satisfying crunch to burgers or wraps. Its adaptability to both cool and mild climates makes it a consistent performer in fall, spring, or greenhouse environments.
Why Gardeners Love Iceberg Lettuce:
- Crisp, tender leaves with a clean, mild taste
- Forms tight, round heads about 8 inches wide
- Excellent for salads, wedges, and sandwich crunch
- Cool-season variety that thrives in spring or fall
- Slow to bolt and retains sweetness in variable weather
- Non-GMO, heirloom seed with dependable germination
How to Grow:
Sow seeds ¼ inch deep in well-drained soil as soon as it can be worked in early spring or in late summer for a fall crop. Space plants 10–12 inches apart to allow heads to form properly. Iceberg lettuce prefers cool temperatures (45–75°F) and consistent moisture. Provide partial shade in warmer climates to extend growing time and reduce bolting. Heads typically mature in 75–90 days.
Harvest & Enjoy:
Harvest when heads are firm and tightly packed. Chill before serving to bring out the signature crispness. Enjoy freshly cut Iceberg in wedge salads, sandwiches, or as a crunchy topping for wraps and tacos. Its mild flavor and sturdy texture make it one of the most versatile lettuces you can grow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are heirloom seeds?
What are heirloom seeds?
Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques.
You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.
How do I know my seeds are fresh?
How do I know my seeds are fresh?
Every seed packet includes a "packed for" date, and we germination test each seed lot before packaging to ensure you receive viable, high-quality seeds that are ready to grow.
Are your seeds treated?
Are your seeds treated?
No, we do not pre-treat our farmer seeds. All of our garden seeds for sale are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.
In what zones can I grow your seeds?
In what zones can I grow your seeds?
The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.
What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?
What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?
Most seeds remain viable for 3 to 5 years or longer when stored properly. Check your seed packet for specific varieties. For best results, keep your seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store them in an airtight container in a consistent temperature environment—a refrigerator or cool basement works well. Proper storage helps maintain germination rates and extends seed life well beyond the packed date.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?
The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically.
