Onderhoudsinstructies
Lettuce requires moderate temperatures and should be grown in a location that receives direct bright light for optimal growth. It thrives in evenly moist soil and prefers a temperate climate. Regular watering and maintaining moderate humidity levels will help the plant grow well.Oogst
Lactuca sativa, commonly known as lettuce, is typically ready for harvest about 70 days after planting. Harvesting should be done in the early morning when the leaves are crisp and full of moisture. For leaf varieties, individual outer leaves can be picked as needed, while for head varieties, the entire head should be cut off at the base. Ensure to avoid damaging the plant to allow for potential regrowth. Lettuce should be harvested before it bolts, which is when it starts to flower and the leaves become bitter.Bodem
