Sowing depth

Seeds should be sown at a depth of 0.5 to 1 cm. Such shallow sowing guarantees quick, even emergence and strong, healthy plants. After sowing, it is worth gently firming the soil and sprinkling it with water to ensure the seeds adhere well to the substrate.

Sowing time for direct sowing

The best time for sowing is between March and April, and again from May to June. This schedule allows for a double harvest during the season, with the first fresh heads appearing at the beginning of summer and the next batch in autumn.

Spacing

During sowing or planting, intervals of approximately 30 to 40 cm should be maintained between plants and rows. Such space provides each seedling with appropriate conditions for development and the formation of substantial heads. Denser planting can lead to weaker growth, so it is worth planning the beds correctly.

Harvest time

Harvests of the Doree de Printemps lettuce fall between June and July, and again from September to October, depending on the sowing date and weather. The leaves maintain freshness and crunchiness for a long time, allowing their taste to be enjoyed for several days after picking. Gathering heads in the morning or evening, when temperatures are lower, helps preserve their freshness and excellent appearance.

Cultivation

This lettuce grows best in fertile, humus-rich, and well-drained soil with moderate moisture. Before sowing, it is worth enriching the substrate with compost or well-decomposed manure to provide appropriate nutrients. The variety copes well even on hot days; it does not bolt prematurely and retains its crispness. It rewards the grower with an even, beautiful yield with minimum effort and care.
