Red 'Picking' Lettuce Seed
Lettuce originated in the Mediterranean region where it was thought of as a weed. It has, however, been cultivated as a salad vegetable for over 4500 years. The name 'Lettuce' derives from the Latin 'Lac' which means 'Milk' - a reference to the milky juice found in the plant. Although in Europe it is used primarily for salads, in China they are used in cooking and the stem is as important as the leaves. Granada is a new 'picking' type - pick off and use leaves as required. Culture: Sow thinly into fi nely raked, warm, moist soil at a depth of 13mm (½") in rows 30cm (12") apart, at fortnightly intervals from late March to early August. (Germination 7-12 days). Thin the resulting seedlings to 30cm (12") between plants. As the plants grow, pick leaves as required. Lettuce grows best
