You can also sow Lollo Rosso Lettuce seeds directly in early fall, around September. This looseleaf lettuce type prefers conditions ranging from 40-75°; however, Lollo Rosso Italian Lettuce can also tolerate colder temperatures and adapt to heat better than other varieties. Plant lettuce 1\/4-1\/2\" deep, 4\" apart, and with 12-15\" in between rows. Germination will take 1-2 weeks, and they are fast-maturing annuals. Organic Lollo Rosso Lettuce, also called Lollo Red, Lolla Rossa, or Lollo Rossa, prefers loose, well-drained soil with compost and a pH of 6.0-7.0. Lettuce, in general, shouldn't be overwatered. However, with Lollo Rosso Lettuce seeds, be sure to water 2-3\" per week, as this heirloom lettuce variety shouldn't dry out. Organic Lollo Rosso Lettuce grows non-GMO seeds that prefer full sun, but can tolerate partial shade. Since cold hardy plants\" flavor enhances with the cold, it's generally recommended to sow non-GMO lettuce seeds directly and lay down some mulch. As their wine-colored, ruffled green leaves develop, Lollo Red grows into a diverse cool-season crop that is one of the first veggies on any gardener's list. Store your leafy-treats in the fridge for 1-2 weeks by covering your Lollo Rosso Lettuce heads in a wet paper towel and sealing them in a plastic bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHarvesting:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic Lollo Rosso Lettuce plants will be ready to harvest around 55 days from the sowing date or once their ruffled leaves have reached 3-6\" long. Be sure to pick the leaves before they've grown too large, as Lolla Rossa or Lollo Red Lettuce leaves are fast-maturing heirlooms. Harvesting lettuce too late in the season will result in bitter-tasting plants. Pick the outer leaves first, so the smaller green and wine-colored leaves in the center will continue to provide their \"cut and come back again\" growing method. This loose-leaf lettuce variety is diverse and can also be harvested by digging up the entire plant or cutting it with gardening shears while leaving 1\" of the stem behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFacts:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLactuca sativa seeds originated in Ancient Egypt, where they extracted oil from lettuce seeds and consumed their leaves around 4,000 years ago.
