There are five general types or classifications of lettuce: Butterhead, Crisphead, Looseleaf, Romaine, and Celtuce.
It depends on the type of lettuce. If it is a cut and come again type they do not heart up and you only pick the leaves you need. If it is a butterhead type, when the head starts to fill out feel it gently, if it feels quite firm it is ready, leave it too long and it will shoot.

No, lettuce is not cut when it flowers.Specifically, the lettuce needs to be cut before it flowers unless you want it to taste bitter and unless you do not want the seeds. A lettuce that flowers should be allowed to seed. A lettuce that is cut before flowering may regenerate seconds if it is a particular variety, such as butterhead and looseleaf.
it is a type of lettuce that is fairly plain

Iceberg lettuce
As stated in http://www.gov.pe.ca/af/agweb/index.php3?number=70431, there are 5 types of lettuce: • Crisphead (also called Iceberg lettuce) • Butterhead • Cos or Romaine • Loose leaf or bunching and • Stem lettuce (also called Asparagus lettuce or Chinese lettuce/ celtuce). hope that'll help too =)
Cos is not a pear. It is a type of lettuce, also called romaine lettuce.
Romaine lettuce is the best but don't give lettuce too often. All it is for them is water, there are no nutrients.
