How To Grow |
Sow 3mm (1/8 in) deep in clumps. Cover with a fine layer of soil or compost and firm gently. Keep soil moist. Seedlings appear in 6-10 days. Thin to strongest seedlings spacing 10cm (4in) apart both ways. For baby leaves thin to 5cm (2in) apart. Water often as lettuce have shallow roots. Cut leaves when 5-7cm (2-3in) high just above the crown. |
