Planting Instructions

Seed Preparation:

Sowing:

Sow seeds 1/8 to 1/4 inch deep in rows spaced 12-18 inches apart.

Alternatively, scatter seeds thinly in a prepared bed and lightly rake to cover.

Germination:

Keep the soil consistently moist during germination, which typically occurs in 7-14 days.

Maintain a temperature of 60-70°F (15-21°C) for best results.

Transplanting:

Thin seedlings to 6-8 inches apart once they have developed true leaves.

If starting indoors, transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.

Care and Maintenance:

Water regularly, aiming for 1 inch of water per week.

Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer every 3-4 weeks or side-dress with compost.

Monitor for pests such as aphids and caterpillars; treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil if necessary.

Harvest leaves when they reach desired size, typically 60-70 days after sowing, by cutting leaves at the base.

Continuously harvest outer leaves to encourage new growth and prolong the harvest period.

By following these planting instructions and providing proper care, you can enjoy a bountiful harvest of fresh and flavorful Red Romaine Lettuce from your seeds.
