What is the best time and method to plant lettuce?

What months are suitable for planting lettuce?

Generally, lettuce is planted in autumn, but can also be planted around April in spring. However, the yield is higher in autumn than in spring. This period allows the lettuce to grow better and is particularly rich in nutritional value. It is deeply loved by the public and can survive normally by avoiding the hot summer or cold winter seasons.

Lettuce Planting Method

1. Sowing: Because lettuce seeds are very small, they should be mixed with mud and sand when sowing, and then evenly spread on the seedbed. Be sure to spread them evenly so that the temperature can be well maintained.

2. Transplantation: When transplanting, pay attention to the spacing between each lettuce and the row spacing to avoid planting density that is too sparse or too dense. After transplanting, fertilize the lettuce seedlings and remember to water them.

Points to note when planting lettuce

1. Fertilization: When planting lettuce, the requirements for the soil are relatively high. Not only must there be sufficient nutrients, but also sufficient trace elements in the soil. Nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer or potassium fertilizer can be used.

2. Daily management: When planting lettuce, you need to pay more attention to daily management. You need to meet the appropriate temperature and sufficient water. At the same time, you must also pay attention to drainage during the rainy season.
