It won't rot or dry out: how to grow lettuce correctly
Experienced gardeners believe that it is better to grow lettuce than to fight weeds.
Regular consumption of leafy vegetables is a good preventative measure against a number of diseases.
Lettuce reduces the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, strengthens bone tissue, and fiber helps improve digestion.
The leafy vegetable is sown in early spring so that the vitamins can reach the table as quickly as possible. Some gardeners complain that the lettuce rots or dries out, so they fail to get a harvest.
Experienced gardeners sow lettuce in a greenhouse as early as March. When the plant has grown enough green mass, it can be planted throughout the garden where there are still free spaces.
But it is important to take into account that other plantings do not shade the lettuce. Lettuce is recommended to be planted next to onions, radishes, cabbage, radishes, peas, beans, spinach, tomatoes. It is not necessary to allocate a separate bed for leafy vegetables; you can plant them along onions or tomatoes.
