  • In this video, I show you how to grow lettuce from seed indoors, and harvest it in just one month! You can use this lettuce to make your own fresh, organic salads free of pesticides. It's so easy anyone can do it, just follow my steps and you'll be eating homegrown salads in no time.
    This was my first time ever growing lettuce from seed indoors. Growing lettuce indoors under lights is actually really cool, and it allows you to be more self-sufficient in the winter even when it's much too cold outside to grow anything. I was surprised how easy it was to grow lettuce indoors from seed. It took very little effort and I was rewarded at lettuce harvest time. If you're wondering how to grow lettuce at home, follow my easy guide and you'll be harvesting fresh organic lettuce in no time!

    This video is kinda lame but skip to 4:48 if you want to see the epic salad I made from the lettuce.
    Edit: OK so a lot of you are saying this video isn't lame, and I appreciate that! Looking back, it was an interesting experiment, but I never expected this video to get over 100K views!!!

      I dont think he did. I believe he transplanted a few because there were so many seedlings in the seed starter tray - wayyyyyy more than the 3 or 4 at the end of the video.

      Those types of lettuce do not need much soil at all but I'm definitely surprised he did it in a 72 cell tray. The holes in those trays are tiny!

    • @shawnraj7816
      @shawnraj7816 Před 2 lety +1

      Same here.Guess they dont need much rootspace and nutrients..Point to note,it might not work if there isnt a water tray underneath coz the soil would dry up from the elements as well as uptake from the plants.Personaly,I usually transplant them at the same size as his are at day 19

  • @AmoristKOS
    @AmoristKOS Před 4 lety +45

    Good job. Most people don’t realize that lettuce is 90% water, and when dehydrated, shrivels up to almost nothing. That’s why they don’t need much soil to grow.
