Lettuce Propagation!

In this post I will be explaining how to propagate (grow) lettuce from a store bought lettuce head! I just started mine so I am not 100% sure if it works but so far I have some growth so I will keep up mine and give updates! This is for those who don’t want to buy a lettuce head and waste most of it, like myself!

Step 1: what you need

You need a lettuce head (Romain lettuce is the most recommended lettuce for hamsters and never use iceberg lettuce, it is bad for them), a pot or dish with holes so roots can grow through it, and a dish/bowl to hold the water (this dish/bowl will have no holes and a ledge with good sunlight or artificial sunlight

Step 2: Beginning the process

So to begin with the lettuce propagation you need to set the lettuce into the pot/dish with wholes and put it into the dish/bowl without holes and fill it so the lettuce head is submerged until 1/4 of an inch is at the bottom (cut the lettuce to the roots to promote growth)

Step 3: Watch it grow

So it’s a pretty simple process all you have to do is follow the steps before and you should start noticing growth within the first 3 days or so with natural sunlight and within the first 2 days with artificial sunlight

I will give updates on how it goes, thank you for reading and have a good day! (Also I have mine under a window sill if you were wondering)
