Fatty Seeds – Grand Rapid Lettuce
Grand Rapid Lettuce is a fast-growing, loose-leaf lettuce variety known for its bright green, curly leaves and crisp, tender texture. With its mild and refreshing flavour, it is perfect for salads, sandwiches and other fresh dishes. Suitable for growing in pots or garden beds, it is a great choice for home gardening.
Planting Guidelines:
-
Sow the seeds directly into well-draining, nutrient-rich soil, covering them lightly with a thin layer of soil. Space the plants approximately 15–20cm apart to allow sufficient room for healthy growth.
-
Seeds typically germinate within 7–10 days, and the leaves can be ready for harvesting in approximately 45–55 days. Harvest the outer leaves regularly while leaving the centre intact to encourage continuous growth.
-
Grand Rapid Lettuce grows best in cooler conditions with partial sunlight, especially in Singapore's warm climate. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Avoid prolonged exposure to intense afternoon sun, as excessive heat may cause the plant to flower early and develop a bitter taste.
