How to grow Lettuce 'Victoria'

  • Partial Sun

  • High

A partial sun position will ensure your plant thrives and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Victoria is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Ideally plant in loamy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.2 and 6.8 as Victoria likes to be in weakly acidic soil.

Growing Victoria from seed

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.49 inches (1.25 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 5°C / 41°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Victoria about 60 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Victoria

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Victoria is a tender plant.

By our calculations, you should look at planting out Victoria about 45 days before your last frost date.

Harvesting Victoria

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by early autumn.
