Little Garden Crew: Piro

Seed packet for children in kindergarten and primary school age

It is best to sow lettuce in a shallow tray filled with very fine soil. Make a shallow groove with a small stick and scatter the seeds into it. Be careful to distribute them as evenly as possible. Cover the seeds with a very thin layer of soil and keep it consistently moist until the leaves start to sprout. Once the plants have a few larger leaves, carefully transplant them into your garden bed or a planter box, spacing them about the length of a large ruler apart. For leaf lettuce, you can start harvesting leaf by leaf from the outside inwards quite soon.
The information provided in the instructions for our child-friendly seed boxes "Little Garden Crew," as well as the details on the seed packets and the colouring and craft sheet with name tags available for download, is only available in German.
