Care Information

How to grow your salad

  • Sow indoors any time 1.5cm (½in) deep in seed compost. Water well and place in a light, warm position, away from draughts and strong sunlight. A temperature of 20°C (68°F) is ideal. Keep moist but do not overwater.
  • Seedlings should start to appear in 7-21 days. Transplant as soon as seedlings are large enough to handle, to avoid damaging their roots.
  • Harden off and plant out to final position in May, spacing 45cm (18in) apart in a pot, growing bag or border of an unheated greenhouse, or in a sunny position in a bed or large container outdoors. Dig in some well-rotted compost into the soil before planting if growing in the ground.
  • Or sow outdoors, April to May, 5cm (2in) deep, directly where they are to grow, in a sunny, sheltered position in fertile, moist but well-drained soil. Sow seeds 45cm (18in) apart. Keep moist and weed-free. Seedlings should start to appear in 7-21 days. Early sowings will benefit from cloche protection.

Harvest from May to October. Pick regularly to encourage further cropping.
