It's not always easy to tell the difference between parsley and coriander plants! To recognize them
Observe their leaves: coriander leaves are more rounded, while parsley leaves are pointed.
Rub their leaves between your fingers. Coriander gives off a powerful, distinctive scent!
When in doubt, just taste the leaves 😉
Water your lettuces regularly to keep the soil moist. Don't let them wilt! Avoid watering the leaves if possible to prevent disease. Mulch to keep the soil moist and reduce watering.
Watch out for snails and slugs, which are particularly fond of tender young lettuce shoots!
Ceercle tip Ceercle while your plants are small and fragile, don't hesitate to place glass jars over your lettuces to protect them. This will protect your plants from snails and slugs while they grow and become large enough to resist their attacks! Remember to lift the jar from time to time to allow for ventilation.
There are several ways to harvest lettuces:
As you harvest, remove the larger leaves from the sides. This way, your lettuce will continue to grow. After several harvests, it will eventually go to seed. This method applies to all the lettuces in the box!
Here are two other methods, which apply more to the oak leaves in your box:
Cut the leaves off the plant halfway up, leaving the heart intact. This will enable the plant to grow stronger and bushier.
Harvest the whole lettuce once it is well developed. Use a knife to make a clean cut at the crown.
Good to know : the more mature the arugula, the hotter it becomes!
