Green Salad Bowl forms a large, lime green rosette of delicate, tender, deep-notched oak-like leaves. It shows good heat tolerance, does not get bitter in hot conditions and has relatively good resistance to bolting.
Baby leaves can be picked in just 28 days and is often fully matured in 49-60 days.
Lettuces like to be grown in mild conditions and do not like hot weather. They should be sown often to ensure a continuous supply.
Sow the seeds very shallowly and rake in lightly. Keep the soil moist for the continued life of the plant and you will be rewarded with lovely salad greens.
Any dryness will result in bitter leaves and bolting will result.
Sow in all months in mild areas and cease sowing during mid winter in cold areas.
Cease sowing during hot conditions or whenever they can be expected to arise.
Lettuces grow well under trees where they receive dappled shade.
