Growing Zone

Most leafy greens like the cooler temperatures, but they can generally grow year-round. You want to be aware of the extreme temperature ranges in your region. Refer to the guidelines below:

COLD CLIMATES

If you live in a location where the temperatures dip below freezing, hold off on growing until night temperatures are consistently in the 40's.
On the occasional dips into the 30's, you can cover your seedlings with a sheet overnight.

WARM CLIMATES:

If you regularly experience temperatures above 90 degrees, you may want to focus on herbs and heat-tolerant fruiting plants (tomatoes and peppers) instead.

To find out what extreme temperatures your location experiences, check out the USDA zone for your region.

More Lettuce Tips

Best Planted Wall Placement: Near the top in cooler temperatures (to maximize sun exposure), near the bottom when it's hot (for shade).
