Care Information

How to grow Mixed Lettuce Leaves

  • Sow outdoors, from March to August, thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm (½in) deep, directly into prepared soil that has been watered or containers with good-quality compost.
  • For mature lettuces, allow 25cm (10in) between rows and thin to 20cm (8in) apart.
  • For cut and come again baby leaves, allow 15cm (6in) between rows or sow thinly direct into 25cm (10in) pots.
  • Early sowings may benefit from cloche protection.
  • Seedlings usually appear in 7-14 days. No further thinning should be necessary.
  • Protect young seedlings with netting or fleece to deter birds and insects.
  • Keep moist, particularly in warmer weather.
  • Regular sowings made every 2-3 weeks will ensure a continuous supply of leaves.
  • Pick a few leaves from each plant when approx. 10cm (4in) high; they will regrow for up to 4 cuts.

Harvest whole plants from May.
