1. Growing lettuce from scraps (in water) Regrowing iceberg lettuce, butter lettuce, or romaine lettuce in water is a very simple process that will provide you with some fresh new salad greens from the stump that you were likely going to throw away!
Does iceberg lettuce regrow after cutting?
Yes, lettuce leaves will grow back after cutting but only if proper care and technique are used when cutting as all vegetable lettuce follow similar annual vegetable growth cycles.
How many times can you harvest iceberg lettuce?
Iceberg lettuce can be harvested once it forms the pale round head familiar from the supermarket. Ideally, you'll pick the lettuce when the outer leaves are pale green, before they turn brown. If they do change to brown, or a flowering stalk appears, harvest immediately.
