lettuce sowing now


By ladbrokes - Posted on 11 July 2010

just been out to get some new lettuce to grow now.

marshall cos lettuce
cavallo corn salad
oriental mustards
american land cress
bordeaux spinach
chicory grumolo verde

what is everyone else sowing now

Still time to sow calabrese for the late autumn and kale for winter. Maybe a few late carrots.

Also chicories for radicchio such as Palla Rossa types, and any kind of endive.

Parsley for winter use.

Last sowings of lettuce, I like cos ones for autumn as their upright habit results in less mildew.

But I think you are a little early for lambs lettuce as it often gets mildew when growing in dry weather, unless it is going to rain a lot in September!
