Description
Features
- Lettuce is so easy to grow it can be started indoors for early transplants or
- sown directly in the garden. In fact, doing both is recommended to get maximum
- production. Start some lettuce seeds indoors in peat pots a few weeks before
- the last frost date in your area. Provide the seedlings with plenty of sunlight or
- keep them under artificial lighting until ready to move into the garden.
- Transplant the seedlings as soon as the soil can be worked in the spring. If
- a hard freeze threatens, protect the seedlings with a cloche or row cover.
- Reserve a number of lettuce seedlings to fill empty spaces in the garden as
- the season progresses. To sow lettuce directly in the garden, simply plant
- the seeds about 1/4 inch deep, tamp them down, and water. Lettuce
- is ideal for succession planting. Sow seeds every two weeks for production
- throughout the season, starting with early lettuce varieties, using heat-tolerant
- varieties as your main crop, and then switching to fall crops late in the summer.
