41、 Drop the seeds over the surface and cover them lightly with soil. If the soil is not already a little wet, give it some water. But do not drown the seeds.Next, cover the seed tray with paper. When the seedlings have come up far enough to touch the paper, take it off. You can transplant the seedling
42、s into the garden when they are about 2 to 3 centimeters tall. Do this when the weather is not too hot and not too cold.Take out as much soil as you can with the seedlings. Then dig a hole in the ground bigger than the lettuce roots. Water the plants but not too heavily.Harvest leaf lettuces when th
43、e leaves are big enough to eat. Pull the leaves from the outside of the planting so the inside leaves will keep growing. Lettuce is best when served fresh, so make a salad and enjoy.
