Cut-and-come-again lettuce mix is a selection of several lettuce varieties in a single seed pack, designed to produce a ready-made garden salad rich in different colours, shapes and textures.
The mix includes several selections of Lactuca sativa var. crispa, with leaves ranging from smooth to strongly curled, in shades from light green to burgundy-red.
Broadcast or row sow from February to September, repeated every 2-3 weeks to always have fresh leaves ready for cutting.
The included varieties have very similar growing needs: cool fertile soil, regular light watering, dense sowing for a uniform green carpet.
Harvest by cutting the leaves 3-4 cm from the base when they reach 8-10 cm in length; the plant regrows quickly, allowing several successive cuts.
Like other cut-and-come-again lettuces, monitor for slugs, aphids and downy mildew in high humidity conditions.
Ideal for those with limited garden or balcony space who want a ready-made, varied salad from a single sowing, without managing several varieties separately.
The different components of the mix share a good supply of vitamin A, vitamin K and folate, with the red varieties richer in antioxidant anthocyanins.
On average about 14-15 kcal per 100 g, with high water content and a fair fibre and potassium supply, typical of cut-and-come-again lettuces.
