Preparing the Soil and Planting the Lettuce

Before planting lettuce in winter, prepare the soil by removing any weeds and adding compost or organic matter to improve its fertility and drainage.

When planting lettuce, it's important to space the seeds or seedlings properly to allow for proper growth. Follow the spacing instructions provided on the seed packet or plant label.

Water the lettuce seeds or seedlings thoroughly after planting, and continue to water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist.

Caring for Winter Lettuce Plants

During the winter months, it's important to protect your lettuce plants from frost and extreme cold. Cover them with row covers or cloches to provide insulation.

Monitor the soil moisture and water the lettuce plants when needed. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot.

Harvest the lettuce leaves when they reach the desired size. Cut the outer leaves, leaving the inner leaves to continue growing.
