Mixed Lettuce Seedlings

Description

Growing Guide for Mixed Lettuce:

Location:

Plant your lettuce in an area that receives partial sunlight. It can tolerate a bit of shade, making it versatile for various garden setups.

Soil:

Ensure well-draining, nutrient-rich soil. You can improve your soil’s quality by adding compost or organic matter before planting.

Planting:

1. Begin by sowing your lettuce seeds 1/4 inch deep in rows spaced about 12 inches apart. If you’re transplanting seedlings, ensure each seedling is spaced about 6-8 inches apart.
2. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Care:

• Regularly thin your seedlings to prevent overcrowding, ensuring that each plant has enough space to grow and develop.
• Mulch around the lettuce plants to retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and reduce weed growth.
• Water consistently to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid wetting the foliage to prevent fungal diseases.

Harvest:

Depending on the variety, you can start harvesting young leaves as soon as they reach a size you desire or wait until the heads are fully formed. Use clean, sharp scissors to cut the leaves or heads at the base, allowing the plant to continue producing.
