How to Plant Green Leaf Lettuce from Seed

When to Plant Seeds

  • Spring planting: Sow seeds 2-4 weeks before the last frost date.
  • Fall planting: Sow seeds in late summer, about 8 weeks before the first frost.
  • Can also be grown indoors year-round in containers.

Preparing for Planting

  1. Choose a sunny location with well-draining, fertile soil.
  2. Loosen the soil to a depth of 6-8 inches.
  3. Mix in organic compost or aged manure for added nutrients.

Sowing Seeds

  • Scatter seeds ¼ inch deep in rows 12 inches apart.
  • Lightly cover with soil and water gently.

Thinning Seedlings

  • Thin seedlings to 6-8 inches apart once they sprout.
  • For continuous harvests, succession plant every 2 weeks.

Pro Tip

For crisp and flavorful green leaf lettuce, plant in cool weather and provide consistent moisture to prevent bitterness. Use rich, well-draining soil and space plants 8–10 inches apart for good airflow. Harvest outer leaves frequently to encourage continuous growth, or cut the entire plant just above the base for regrowth.

Bonus: To extend the harvest, plant in succession every 2–3 weeks and provide light shade in hot weather to prevent bolting.

Getting to know your Leaf Lettuce

Green Leaf Lettuce is a cool-season, loose-leaf variety with vibrant, tender, ruffled leaves. It grows best in moist, nutrient-rich soil with ample sunlight and moderate temperatures. Unlike head-forming lettuces, green leaf lettuce does not develop a compact core, making it easy to harvest continuously by picking outer leaves. It requires consistent watering to maintain crisp texture and prevent bitterness. The plant grows 6 to 12 inches tall and is ideal for succession planting. Green leaf lettuce is widely used in fresh salads and sandwiches due to its mild, slightly sweet flavor and crisp texture. It is susceptible to pests like aphids and slugs, but row covers and companion planting help protect it.
