To sow romaine lettuce seeds under cover, it's best to use individual containers such as peat cups or terracotta pots. Fill them with quality potting soil and tamp lightly. Romaine lettuce seeds should be sown on the surface, then covered with a thin layer of soil. Water gently to maintain some moisture, without over-wetting the substrate.
It is recommended to sow romaine lettuce seeds under cover in early spring or late summer for a spread-out harvest. Make sure to maintain a constant temperature of around 18-20°C and sufficient light near a window or in a greenhouse.
The seeds should be sown in a greenhouse.
Monitor the humidity of the substrate regularly and make sure you aerate the plants to prevent the development of disease. Once the plants have reached a sufficient size, you can transplant them into the ground, making sure that there is adequate spacing between each plant.
Planting in the open ground is not a problem.
