Grow salad leaves in well prepared, fertile, moist soil in sun or semi shade. Sow seeds thinly at a depth of 1cm (1/2") in drills 38cm (15") apart in soil which has been raked to a fine tilth. When large enough to handle, thin out seedlings to 10cm (4") apart for baby leaves or to 30cm (12") for mature plants.Water salads leaves regularly, and hoe between plants to prevent weeds from establishing. Dry weather may cause plants to bolt so watering is particularly critical during the 2 weeks before harvesting. A thick mulch applied around the plants will help to retain moisture in the soil. Harvest baby salad leaves when required by picking a few leaves from each plant. Mature plants can be harvested by pulling up the entire plant before trimming off the stem with a k.nife.Product Specifications:Position: Full sunHeight: Up to 15cm (5.9in) when fully establishedSpread: Up to 15cm (5.9in) when fully establishedSupplied as 1 packet of 250 seedsDelivered with growing and care instructionsImages shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity.
