Lettuce Diary
2024
February, Week 3
Have sown a mini seed module with lettuce to see if I can get a few early salad leaves going. Four modules each of Tom Thumb, Little Gem, and some mixed leaves from Thompson & Morgan.
February, Week 4
All three lettuce varieties/mixes have germinated into small, neat seedlings. They are on the living room windowsill to make best use pot the light.
March, Week 3
I’ve sown a second mini seed module with various lettuce varieties to hopefully give a slightly staggered crop. Also bought a module tray each of Rocket Uber and Red Salad Bowl (Rosette) lettuce from B&Q for £2 each.
March, Week 4
A few small plants of rocket and all lettuce varieties have been planted out under cloches and into the cold frame.
