What’s up with this Romaine?

Doesn’t seem to be forming a true head. Is it bolting or does it need more time?

does not look like bolting to me. Those nice tightly dense heads of lettuce is the result of the heads being tied. Those outer leaves should be removed and made into a BLT wrap.

I’ve gotten good heads from other varieties of Romaine. This is Valmaine.

Sometimes it just does that

My first planting did - the 2nd has started to form proper romaine heads, tho I expect them to bolt in this heat
