Lettuce 'Catalogne rouge'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water often. Catalogne rouge is generally regarded as a tender plant, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Catalogne rouge needs a loamy soil with a ph of 5.8 to 6.8 (weakly acidic soil).

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 7.8 inches (20.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.27 inches (0.7 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 5°C / 41°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Catalogne rouge about 53 days before your last frost date.

Catalogne rouge is tender, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
