Tips for beginners ,
Lettuce is very easy to grow.
Prepare seed trays. You can start your lettuce seeds in store-bought seed trays or make your own out of an old egg carton, box or newspaper.
Sow the seeds 4-6 weeks before the last spring frost. This will give them time to germinate and sprout before the ground gets soft enough to plant them outside.
Give the seeds plenty of sunlight and water. Place the tray in a sunny window and keep the growing medium moist at all times.
Transplant into the garden. The earliest you can transplant your seedlings is two weeks before the last spring frost date.
Fertilize the lettuce three weeks after transplanting. Use alfalfa meal or slow release fertilizer that is rich in nitrogen.
Cut mature leaves. When the leaves look mature enough to eat, resembling lettuce leaves you'd buy in the grocery store, cut them with a harvest knife or scissors.
Store harvested lettuce in the refrigerator. If you don't eat your lettuce right away, you can store it.
