Planting and care

  • You should be able to sow additional seeds every two weeks for a continuous harvest throughout the growing season
  • Fertilize 3 weeks after transplanting
  • Lettuce prefers soil that is high in humus, with plenty of compost and a steady supply of nitrogen to keep if growing fast
  • Use organic alfalfa meal or a slow-release fertilizer
  • To plant a fall crop, create cool soil in August by moistening the ground and covering it with a bale of straw
  • A week later, the soil under the bale will be about 10 degrees F (6 degrees C) cooler than the rest of the garden
  • Sow a three foot row of lettuce seeds every couple of weeks,just rotate the straw bale around the garden
  • Make sure soil remains moist but is well-drained
  • An organic mulch will help conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and keep soil temperatures cool throughout the warmer months

  • Just look at it

Harvest Season
  • Lettuce should be harvested when full size, but just before maturity. You want it young and tender.
  • Before maturity, you can harvest leaf lettuce by simply removing outer leaves so that the center leaves can continue to grow. Butterhead or romaine types can be harvested by removing the outer leaves, digging up the whole plant or cutting the plant about an inch above the soil surface. A second harvest is often possible this way. Crisphead lettuce is picked when the center is firm.
  • Mature lettuce gets bitter and woody and it will go bad quickly, so check your garden everyday.
  • As time passes, you will want to cut the whole plant from the ground.
  • It, s best to harvest in the morning before leaves have been exposed to sun.
