Product Details

Soil - Just your regular garden soil. pH of 6.5 is best. Good drainage and high level of organic matter for best results.

Sun - full sun (6-8 hours) is best, however, most mixes will do just fine in partial shade. You can also grow lettuce mix indoors easily by a sunny window or under grow lights.

Spacing - that's the best part. Not like head lettuce, these mixes don't need almost any spacing. Lettuce seeds are so tiny that in order to space them correctly most growers start lettuce indoors and transplant to the garden when the plants are a few inches tall. The seeds in loose leaf mixes can be sprinkled 1/4"- 1/2" apart.

When to sow - Just like regular lettuce, mixed lettuce like cool weather. You can start sowing outdoors 2-6 weeks before your average last frost date as long as you can work the soil.

For continues crop, sow successively every 3 weeks until the weather gets too hot or until two weeks before the first fall frost if you live in a cooler climate.
