Lettuce & radish

-

In just a few weeks from planting plugs, this lime-green baby lettuce will mature – just enough time to grow a filler crop of pink and purple radishes at the edges. Harvest the lettuce’s outer leaves to encourage more leaf growth. Purple salad leaves are a great fastgrowin­g, cut-and-come-again crop so keep sowing batches of seedlings to fill gaps. Time to harvest Lettuce, 30 days from plugs; radish 25-50 days from seed
