Sowing Instructions

 

Sow seeds outdoors from March to August in moist, well-drained soil. Scatter the seeds thinly across the soil surface and lightly press them in. Do not cover, as lettuce seeds need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which should take 7-14 days. Thin seedlings to around 20-30 cm apart once they are large enough to handle.

 

For an earlier harvest, sow indoors from January to March. Sow seeds in trays or pots filled with moist, well-drained compost, keeping at a temperature of 15-18°C. Once the seedlings are large enough, transplant them outdoors after the last frost, spacing them 20-30 cm apart.

 

Lettuce Leaf Salad Mix Spicy thrives in full sun to partial shade, and regular watering is essential to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Since this is a cut-and-come-again variety, outer leaves can be harvested as needed, encouraging fresh growth. Fertilising with a balanced feed will help ensure strong, healthy plants, but be mindful not to over-fertilise, as this can result in less flavourful leaves.

 

This easy-to-grow, flavour-packed lettuce mix is perfect for gardeners who want to add an exciting twist to their salads. Lettuce Leaf Salad Mix Spicy brings both variety and zing to your dishes, offering a fresh, spicy crunch that’s sure to elevate any meal.
