Lettuce
150+ seeds
"Red salad bowl"
Similar to Green Salad Bowl except for the reddish-bronze color. It is a very decorative plant and is slow to bolt allowing for a long harvest. Introduced in 1955. Open-pollinated and Heirloom Seed.
Lettuce are not fussy about soil type as long as it is able to hold water. Their ideal is a soil which is well-drained and well-dug. Clay soil which has been broken down with lots of peat is excellent. Do not apply fertiliser or nutrient rich compost to the soil, this will cause rot.

Because lettuce prefer cool conditions they are ideal vegetables for inter-cropping. That is growing them near to other vegetables which crop at a different time, normally later. Plant lettuce where runner beans, broad beans, peas, brussels sprouts or sweet corn will provide them with shade in the hottest part of the day.

If you do grow lettuce near taller vegetables, take care that they are not deprived of water. Lettuce need lots of water to mature quickly and larger crops may take the lion's share of moisture. If this is the case, water the lettuce well in dry conditions.
Sow 6mm (¿¿in) deep in drills 38cm (15in) apart. Thin out gradually to 30cm (12in) apart.
