An easy way of growing butterhead lettuce in containers or pots. All the way from sowing seeds to harvesting decent size heads. Lettuce can be grown in raised beds, grow bags and open garden the same way.
I hope You enjoy the video and find it helpful, thank You for watching!

@@Liap Not your videos. Other people's videos. Your videos are realistic , on point and I love watching them. I realised that it's not my planting, because sometimes I find it takes too long, but some plants just take a lot of time to germinate, grow etc.

Ahoj, dal by šalát pestovať aj v nižších nádobách než používaš ty? Eventuálne asi v akej najnižšej nádobe by sa dal pestovať? Ďakujem pekne P.S. pekné videá natáčaš, pochvala

Ahoj, áno dal, ak sú nádoby dostatočne objemné, čiže ak plytké, tak aby mali väčší priemer. Záleží aj od typu, listovému šalátu sa bude dariť aj v nízkych nádobách (10-12cm), no pri hlávkových skôr 15-20cm. Ďakujem veľmi pekne, teší ma, že sa Ti moje videá páčia 🙂

Once we cut the lettuce out, does is rapport again since the bottom part is still in the soil.

If You let stem big enough in the soil, it will grow some side shoots. But it won't grow another head like the first one.

I've tried growing lettuce twice now, and it hasn't worked. The seeds don't germinate. Your video said mostly compost as the soil base, I'm going to try that with perlite (I don't have sand)

I used coco coir, peat moss, aged forest material, and perlite to grow some Oakleaf and Gourmet lettuce. Worked out great! Just had to keep up with watering. Oh and I was feeding them with synthetic nutrients. Didn't run organic.

The most important thing for lettuce seeds to germinate is light. If Your seeds have hard time germinating, don't cover them at all. Just put them on soil surface, spray with water. You can also create some little greenhouse effect to make it hold moisture. Yes I am using mostly compost this year. Perlite is fine, you don't have to add neither of those, they can help but are not essential. One more thing - when using compost for germinating seeds, make sure it's sifted to fine structure. I am having no trouble germinating any seeds this year in finely sifted compost. Good luck!

@@Liap Thank you for replying. I really appreciate it. I put my pots right on a sunny window, so they got plenty of direct sunlight, and I watered them whenever the soil looked day, that's why I can understand why they didn't take

@@fah6601 They don't need direct sunlight to germinate, they just need some light. Direct sunlight will dry out the soil faster. Seeds don't like that. They like being in moist soil that is not being dried out and watered again. That could help too 🙂
