Little Gem lettuceHow to Successfully Sow Little Gem Lettuce Under Cover
Little Gem lettuce is a variety appreciated for its sweet flavor and crisp texture. To successfully sow it under cover, it is recommended to do so at the beginning of spring.
Choose a deep container such as a seed tray or box, filled with light, well-draining potting soil. Place the Little Gem seeds on the surface of the soil and cover them lightly with a few millimeters of soil. Press gently, water sparingly to avoid seed rot, and place the container in a bright, warm spot while keeping the soil consistently moist.
Be sure to ventilate the shelter regularly to prevent rot or disease. When the seedlings have reached a sufficient size, you can transplant them outdoors, spacing them about 20 centimeters apart.
By following these simple tips, you can enjoy delicious Little Gem salads throughout the summer season while practicing natural gardening methods.
