FAQs

Can lettuce grow in low sunlight?
Yes — it needs only 3–5 hours of winter sun. Place trays where they get indirect light or filtered sun.

Why does my lettuce stay small?
Most often it’s compacted soil or overcrowding. Thin the seedlings early and use soft, well-drained soil with vermicompost.

When should I water lettuce?
Keep soil lightly moist — water when the top feels dry. Avoid overwatering as it causes root rot.

How often can I harvest?
You can pick outer leaves every few days once the plant reaches 4–5 inches tall. Harvest regularly to keep it growing.
