Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
No special preparation is required for Lettuce Webbs Wonderful seeds. For improved germination, you can pre-soak seeds in cool water for 1-2 hours.
Sowing:
Sow seeds directly outdoors in early spring once the soil can be worked or start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost. For direct sowing, scatter seeds evenly on the soil surface and lightly cover with a thin layer of soil or compost. Maintain soil temperatures between 60-70°F (15-21°C) for best germination.
Germination:
Seeds typically germinate within 7-10 days under optimal conditions. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Lettuce seeds need light to germinate, so avoid burying them deeply.
Transplanting:
If starting seeds indoors, transplant seedlings outdoors when they have at least 2-3 true leaves and the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 6-12 inches apart, depending on whether you want to harvest them as baby greens or full heads. If direct sowing, thin seedlings to 6-12 inches apart once they have true leaves.
Care and Maintenance:
Water regularly to maintain soil moisture, but avoid sogginess, as lettuce has shallow roots and requires consistent moisture to prevent bolting. Mulch around plants to help retain moisture and reduce weed competition. If growing in warmer climates, provide shade during the hottest part of the day to prevent bolting in hot weather.
Harvesting:
Harvest leaves when they reach the desired size. You can pick baby greens early or allow the heads to mature fully for a larger harvest.
Happy Gardening!
