Soil Nutrient Requirements
Lettuce does best in a loose, well-drained soil, with regular watering and adequate nitrogen. Whether your soil is heavy clay or a light sandy type, the incorporation of compost will often improve the growing conditions.
Sowing Method
Lettuces have fairly short root systems and only require about 6 inches of soil. Choosing a shallower, longer pot will give you more surface area, which means room to grow more plants. Many greens, like spinach and kale, also do well in these shallow, elongated pots.

Care Instructions
Moist, but not wet, soil with good drainage is key. When your lettuce is thirsty it will wilt in the sun. Give its roots a drink right away along with a splash of cool water on the leaves to keep them happy on hot days. Use row covers to shade the leaves, and mulch to keep roots cool as the season progresses.
