Select a location in full sun or light afternoon shade. Cultivate and fertilize soil with vegetable food. Lettuce is a cool weather crop, so plant in spring after chance of heavy frost has passed. Repeat at two week intervals as long as weather is cool - spring and fall. For earliest crop, start seeds indoors.
