How to Grow Lettuce Salad with RutomBio Organic Fertilizer in Your Backyard


Lettuce salad is one of the most commonly eaten vegetables on our daily dining table. 

It has a crisp and fresh texture, no strong odor, and excellent palatability. At the same time, it contains various vitamins, sugars, fiber, 

and other substances beneficial to human health.


Lettuce is a leafy vegetable that is particularly suitable for growing in winter, with temperatures between 59°F and 68°F, 

and can tolerate light frost. If the temperature exceeds 75°F (24°C), it tends to become bitter, leading to a decline in quality. 

The growth cycle ranges from 30 to 60 days, and the harvest time depends on your management.


Before planting, the following basic factors need to be considered:


  • Soil Selection:

Ensure that the soil pH in your yard is between 6.0 and 7.0, as this range is the most suitable acidity and alkalinity for lettuce growth.

  • Sunlight:

Lettuce prefers plenty of sunlight but can also tolerate partial shade. If the sun is too strong and the temperature is too high, 

appropriate shading measures should be taken.

  • Fertilizer Selection:

Mainly choose nitrogen-based fertilizers, which help promote the rapid growth of green leaves.

  • Variety Selection:

You can choose different varieties based on your personal preferences and local temperature conditions.


How to Use Rutombio Fertilizer to Grow Lettuce in Autumn and Winter?


  • Land Preparation and Base Fertilizer Application:

When preparing the land, spread granular fertilizer. It is recommended to use a fast-acting and slow-release organic-inorganic compound 

fertilizer (16-8-8) as the base fertilizer. This not only provides quick nitrogen and nutrients needed for root growth but also supplies 

high-efficiency organic matter, allowing the lettuce to grow healthier.

Usage and Dosage of Rutombio  Organic-Inorganic Compound Fertilizer 16-8-8:

Use about 300~500 grams per square meter and mix it with the soil.


  • Top Dressing Application:

About 15 days after transplanting the lettuce seedlings, apply a compound amino acid water-soluble fertilizer at a rate of 

about 200 grams per liter, watering it into the soil and on the leaves. Repeat this process after about 2 weeks. 

Rutombio Compound Amino Acid contains 17 free amino acids, which are a source of energy for the rapid and healthy growth of lettuce. 

It not only enhances growth speed but also improves the taste and nutrient content of the lettuce.


Daily Management:

Generally, water the plants in the morning and evening to ensure the soil remains moist.


Harvesting Lettuce:

Lettuce can be harvested between 30 to 60 days after transplanting. If you pick the leaves for consumption each time, 

it can extend the growth cycle of the lettuce, allowing you to enjoy the freshest leaves every time.
