How to Grow Heatwave Mix Lettuce from Seed
Can be transplanted or direct sown. Plant seeds in fertile, loose soil. Remember to keep the soil consistently moist. Thin down to final spacing once plants are established. For best results, plant in spring or fall. Harvest outside leaves for a continual harvest. For longer harvest, stagger planting every 2-3 weeks.
Sow 2-3 seeds 1/4" deep per cell and 2-3" apart in Organically composted, well-drained soil with a pH of 6.0-7.0. Seeds germinate in 3-10 days, transplanting or thinning back to 1 plant every 9-12" as leafy heads establish. Thrives in moist soils supplemented with nitrogen-rich fertilizer and can be sown every two weeks for successive, season-long harvests.
How to Harvest Lettuce
Most varieties of lettuce can be harvested 45-60 days after sowing or once the younger outer leaves have reached 4-5" long as a "cut and come again" crop. Harvest leaves when young and tender for best flavor since leaves bitter with maturity. Heads may be harvested whole, roots and all, or just be cut at the base while leaving behind an inch to the rooted stem. Garden fresh lettuce stores well cold in a plastic bag for 7-10 days. Do not store near apples or bananas.
