Description:
Ruby Lettuce is a stunning heirloom variety prized for its deep, vibrant red color. It has the darkest red of all the red lettuce varieties, making it a beautiful addition to both the garden and your salads. The large, frilled, savoyed leaves have bright light-green centers, with the outer edges showcasing the striking ruby hue. Ruby Lettuce stands out not only for its color but also for its excellent performance in the garden. It has good resistance to bolting, fading, and heat stress, which makes it a reliable choice in warmer growing conditions. Its crisp texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor make it perfect for fresh salads, sandwiches, and garnishes.
Growing Tips:
Planting Method: Direct sowing is ideal, but you can start indoors and transplant if needed.
Sunlight: While lettuce prefers cooler temperatures, it does best in full sun to partial shade, especially as the weather warms up.
Temperature: Lettuce thrives in cooler temperatures, ideally between 55°F to 65°F (13°C to 18°C). It’s heat-tolerant but may bolt (flower and go to seed) if temperatures rise too high.
Space: Space plants about 8–12 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Lettuce prefers evenly moist soil for optimal growth.
Maturity:
Ruby Lettuce reaches full maturity in about 50 days from sowing, making it a fast-growing option for gardeners looking for a quick harvest.
