Crisp, Tender Salad Greens

Black Seeded Simpson produces beautiful light green, frilly leaves with a crisp texture and mild, sweet flavor. The tender leaves are perfect for:

  • Fresh garden salads and mixed greens
  • Sandwiches and wraps
  • Burgers and tacos
  • Lettuce cups and wraps
  • Smoothies and green juices
  • Garnishes

Heat Tolerant for Extended Harvest

Unlike many leaf lettuces that bolt quickly in warm weather, Black Seeded Simpson is slower to bolt, providing a longer harvest window. This heat tolerance makes it an excellent choice for gardeners in warmer climates or for late spring/early summer plantings.

Cut-and-Come-Again Harvesting

One of the best features of Black Seeded Simpson is its ability to regrow after harvesting. Simply cut outer leaves 1-2 inches above the crown, and the plant will continue producing new leaves for weeks. This method provides:

  • Continuous fresh lettuce from fewer plants
  • Extended harvest period
  • Maximum yield per square foot
  • Fresh salads for weeks from a single planting

Perfect for Container Gardening

Black Seeded Simpson's compact size and shallow roots make it ideal for container growing. Plant in pots, window boxes, or raised beds for fresh lettuce on patios, balconies, or small spaces. Use containers at least 6-8 inches deep with good drainage.

Succession Planting for Continuous Harvest

For fresh lettuce all season long, practice succession planting:

  • Sow new seeds every 2 weeks from early spring through late summer
  • Plant in spring and again in late summer for fall harvest
  • In mild climates, grow through winter with protection
  • Stagger plantings to avoid gluts and gaps

Harvesting Tips for Best Quality

  • Baby Greens: Harvest when leaves are 3-4 inches tall (20-30 days)
  • Mature Leaves: Harvest outer leaves when 6-8 inches tall (45-50 days)
  • Whole Head: Cut entire plant 1-2 inches above soil for regrowth
  • Best Time: Harvest in morning when leaves are crisp and cool
  • Storage: Wash, dry thoroughly, and refrigerate in sealed container for up to 1 week

Heirloom Variety Since the 1850s

Black Seeded Simpson has been a beloved garden variety for over 170 years. Its enduring popularity is testament to its reliable performance, excellent flavor, and adaptability. As an open-pollinated heirloom, you can save seeds from your harvest to grow year after year.

Companion Planting

Black Seeded Simpson grows well with:

  • Beneficial Companions: Carrots, radishes, beets, onions, strawberries, cucumbers
  • Avoid Planting Near: Parsley (competes for nutrients)

Interplant lettuce with slower-growing crops to maximize garden space.

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.
