Quick Grow Facts
-
Plant Type: Mixed salad greens.
-
Botanical Scope: A mix, not a single lettuce cultivar or botanical species.
-
Best Sowing Time: Cooler growing weather; protect young plants from heavy frost and avoid sowing through severe heat.
-
Position: Sun in cool weather, with some afternoon shade as temperatures rise.
-
Sowing: Sow thinly and shallowly in a fine, moist seedbed or container; thin crowded seedlings.
-
Watering: Keep the seedbed evenly moist while seed emerges, then water steadily without leaving the roots waterlogged.
-
Harvest: Pick clean young leaves as they reach a useful size. Components may emerge and mature at different rates, so there is no single harvest day for the whole mix.
Why Grow This Mix?
One sowing offers a range of salad leaves for fresh picking. Sow a short new row or container every few weeks in suitable weather to keep the harvest coming.
Garden Uses
Use clean, freshly picked leaves in mixed salads, sandwiches and garnishes.
Growing Notes
Sow in short rows or a shallow container, give seedlings light and airflow, and thin or pick as they crowd. Use clean scissors for baby leaves and leave a healthy growing point where you want regrowth. Wash harvested leaves before eating.
