Germination Temperature: Optimum soil temperatures 60-75 degrees F. Soil above 75 degrees F inhibits germination.

Outside Sowing: Spring when the soil temperature reaches at least 50 degrees F. Sow 1” apart, thin to 6-12”, depending on the size of lettuce you want, baby to full heads. Keep soil moist during germination. Sow every 2-3 weeks for a longer harvest period. Sow heavy seeded rows every 10-14 days for baby greens using the 1 oz. Pinetree Lettuce Mix.
Starting Indoors: 3-4 weeks before planting outside. Sow 2-3 seeds per cell/pot, thinning to one per cell/pot. Provide 60-70 degrees F soil temperatures. Transplant out, 8-12” apart in rows 12” apart.
How much does a packet plant: 25-foot single row
Harvest: Cut whole heads at the base or snip off individual leaves.
Tips: Lettuce needs fertile soil for optimum growth. Work in compost or well-rotted manure into your soil before planting. Provide adequate, even moisture for the best growth. Mulching helps retain moisture.

Lettuce seeds don't germinate well in my garden so I put the seeds in a damp paper towel and placed it in a zip lock baggie. After a couple days most or all of them had germinated and I put them in the garden still on the paper towel which I had divided into several pieces. I covered them lightly with compost. They grew rapidly and I was soon able to transplant them for better spacing. This is my first experience with a fall garden and I couldn't be happier with the lettuce. It's colorful, interesting and tasty.
