The growing period of head lettuce is longer than that of loose-leaf lettuce, and the weight of a single plant is larger, generally 400-750 grams. Late-maturing varieties with a long growing period can reach more than 1,000 grams. Red leaf lettuce and cotton leaf lettuce have shallow root systems and well-developed fibrous roots. The main root system is distributed within 20 cm of the soil layer above the ground. The stem is short and the leaves are alternate. They are lanceolate, elliptical, oval, etc. The leaf color is green, yellow-green or purple. The leaf surface is flat or wrinkled, the leaf margins are wavy or shallowly cracked, the outer leaves are spreading, the heart leaves are loose or held together into leaf balls, the seeds are grayish white or dark brown, and the thousand-grain weight is about 1 gram.
