Description:

This heat-resistant variety will give you excellent results, regardless of the production region.
The resulting salads have beautiful thick, crunchy leaves that are finely tinged with red.

Culinary tip:

Batavia is eaten in salads but also braised or smothered.

Soil tip:

To avoid seeding and extend the harvest period, water your lettuces regularly.
Lettuce prefers sunny exposure.

Culture advice:

1. Sows: Sow from May to August in lines 30 cm apart.
2. Lightening: At the 3-4 leaf stage, rip out the smallest salads and keep only the most vigorous one to leave only one lettuce every 30 cm.
3. Harvest: Harvest from late July to November. To have batavias from the end of June, sow under cover in March-April.

Plants:

Batavia lettuce likes the proximity of the radish because by sowing them together, the lettuce is less likely to rise to seed.
