BIO Leaf Lettuce - Red Salad Bowl - Vivid colour, bright flavour - Fresh Seeds

BIO Leaf Lettuce Red Salad Bowl is a decorative loose leaf lettuce with burgundy green leaves and gently wavy edges, shaped a little like oak leaves. It forms open rosettes, so you can pick individual leaves as needed or cut the whole plant at once. This variety grows steadily, keeps its strong colouring, and offers a mild taste with a light nutty note. The seeds come from certified organic cultivation, meaning the plants are grown without synthetic fertilisers or chemical plant protection products. It performs well in beds, containers, and under cover, making it a practical addition to everyday meals.

Sowing depth

Sow the seeds 0.5 to 1 cm deep. This helps provide good conditions for germination and even growth of young plants. As the seeds are small, cover them with a thin layer of soil or sand to prevent them from drying out.

Outdoor sowing time

Sow outdoors from April to August. This makes it possible to enjoy fresh, crisp leaves through much of the season. For a continuous harvest, sow every 2 to 3 weeks to keep a steady supply of leaves into autumn.

Sowing time under cover

Sow under cover from February to April. Early sowing helps you start harvesting in spring, especially when outdoor temperatures are still too low.

Planting time

Transplant seedlings to their final position from April to September, once they have 4 to 6 leaves and a well developed root system. Planting during this period supports stable growth and well formed rosettes with juicy leaves.

Spacing

Keep a spacing of 30 x 20 to 30 cm. This gives the plants room to develop, improves air flow, and allows good light access, which supports healthy, vigorous growth.

Harvest time

Depending on the sowing date, harvest from May to October. The leaves remain tender, crisp, and full of flavour throughout the growing period.

Growing

Red Salad Bowl grows best in sunny or lightly shaded positions. It prefers fertile, humus rich sandy loam soil that drains well and warms quickly after winter. Water regularly but moderately, keeping the soil slightly moist while avoiding waterlogging.
