I have planted Cos lettuce for the past two years while they grow well they do not seen to develop a good heart. They are in good sun for 3/4 of the day in well draining soil. The soil was prepared with home compost and pea strall, any thoughts please

Cos lettuce don't develop a heart like eg iceberg lettuce. Just keep taking leaves from the outside as it continues to grow.
