What you need to know to Plant & Grow:

Sowing: Sow seeds in a sunny site in successive crops every 2 weeks from April to August, as long as both the soil and weather are cool. Plant at a depth of 3 mm, with seeds spaced 12.5 mm apart.

Planting: Thin to 30 cm between plants, with rows 45 cm apart, to allow for full head development.

Care: For a truly luxurious harvest, work plenty of compost into the soil, as this lettuce thrives in an organic, well-draining, and fertile medium. Keep the soil evenly watered throughout its growth.

Harvesting: For the most sublime flavour, harvest your lettuce early in the morning when the leaves are at their crispest.

Germination: Matures in 55 days.
