Viridis Hortus Salad mixes can also be sown direct in to pots (use 1-3 litre pots) Just sow little and often to get continuity. • Each of the mixes can be grown all year round, for a continuous supply of tasty and tious baby leaves. They can be grown in the home, on windowsills or raised in pots in glasshouses or polytunnel's in cooler areas for winter early spring crops. • Cultivation: The best tasting leaves come from s which are grown quickly; this means a temperature of 15-19°C (60-70°F). Under optimum growing conditions a crop of salad leaves can be ready for picking 3-4 weeks from sowing. Slower growing crops can become more fibrous and hotter flavoured. • Once cut the s should have sufficient energy for re-growth to provide a second or even third crop of leaves, giving a regular supply with "little and often" sowing's.
