When to Plant Lettuce Seeds
When it comes to growing your very own lettuce seeds, there are a few things to consider. The best time to plant your lettuce seeds is as spring planting seeds or autumn planting seeds. In most climates, lettuce seeds can be grown all year round but avoiding the hottest and coldest months of the year is advised.
How to Grow Lettuce Seeds
When going to plant lettuce seeds, be sure to choose a spot in the garden with well-drained soil. The amount of sun needed will vary depending on the variety of lettuce you are looking to grow but most lettuce will need at least six hours of sunshine a day. Keep the soil moist and seedlings will emerge in 4–10 days. Lettuce is ready to harvest when a firm heart has formed; the exception is the loose-leaf varieties, where leaves are harvested as and when needed.
