Leafy Salad Mix is a delightful assortment of various leafy greens and herbs that are specifically selected for their tender leaves and diverse flavours. It typically includes varieties such as lettuce, rocket, spinach, mizuna, and other leafy greens. Leafy Salad Mix is a collective term for a combination of different plant species and cultivars.
These plants are generally annual and are suitable for growing in a variety of positions, including both full sun and partial shade. When it comes to soil type, they prefer well-drained and fertile soil that is rich in organic matter. For spacing, it is recommended to plant Leafy Salad Mix approximately 10 to 15 centimetres apart in rows that are spaced 20 to 30 centimetres apart. This spacing allows the plants to have enough room to grow and develop their foliage without crowding each other.
The first harvest of Leafy Salad Mix can typically be done once the leaves have reached a suitable size for harvesting. This can occur as early as 4 to 6 weeks after sowing, depending on the specific varieties included in the mix. It is best to harvest the leaves when they are young, tender, and vibrant in colour. Regular harvesting encourages continuous growth and ensures a fresh supply of leaves for your salads. When considering the quantity to plant, it depends on the desired yield and consumption.
Planting multiple rows or patches of Leafy Salad Mix can provide a continuous supply of fresh greens, with approximately 10 to 15 plants per square meter being a common guideline. Leafy Salad Mix is a versatile and nutritious addition to salads, sandwiches, wraps, and other culinary creations. Its combination of flavours, textures, and colours adds vibrancy and freshness to your dishes
