Which are the best lettuce for Charles’ outer leaf harvesting?

Community Community General Gardening Vegetables Varieties Which are the best lettuce for Charles’ outer leaf harvesting?

#22218

Picking just the outer leaves of lettuce – I tried this first in 2008 and again last year – inspired by Charles’ Salad Leaves book. It worked a treat and gave me lettuce from May to October. No gluts as I’d had before.
Does anyone have any good varieties for this – the best for early on and then for later sowing and to take you into Autumn? Many thanks – Richard
