Lettuce Growing Tips

Direct seed just beneath the surface of the soil beginning in early spring when a light frost is still possible. Thin so that plants are 12" apart in the row. Avoid planting in the middle of summer. Plants can be harvested by pulling whole and trimming the roots, or by clipping individual leaves. Clipping individual leaves will allow the plants to re-grow new leaves.
