Sowing Indoors
- Almost fill a seed tray with moist seed compost. We recommend using Gro-Sure Seed and Cutting Compost or Westland John Innes Seed Sowing Compost
- Sow seeds thinly over the surface, and lightly cover them with a little more compost
- Place the warm 10-15°C (50-60°F) and keep moist
- When large enough to handle, transplant seedlings 5cm (2in) apart to trays of compost
- Gradually accustom them to conditions outside for 2-3 weeks before planting out to their cropping positions 25cm (10in) apart from the late spring onwards
- Water plants generously in dry weather
Sowing Outdoors
- Sow seeds thinly in a pre-watered shallow row, lightly covering with a little soil
- Keep soil moist, as dry conditions impair germination
- Remember small sowings made every three weeks through the summer should ensure a continuous supply of delicious lettuces
- Allow 45cm (18in) between rows. Thin seedlings to about 25cm (1oin) apart when large enough to handle
- Ensure remaining seedlings are still firm in the soil
Growing Tips
- Use thinnings for colourful baby leaf salads
