To prevent lettuce from bolting when planting seeds, ensure the soil is consistently moist, provide adequate spacing between plants, plant in cooler temperatures, and harvest promptly when ready.
Your lettuce seeds may not be germinating due to factors such as improper planting depth, poor soil quality, inadequate moisture, or incorrect temperature.
Mint bolting occurs when the plant produces flowers and seeds prematurely due to stress or environmental factors. To prevent mint bolting in a garden, it is important to provide the plant with adequate sunlight, water, and nutrients. Regular pruning and harvesting can also help delay bolting.
Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is grown as a leafy vegetable. It was first cultivated by the ancient Egyptians. Lettuce grows best in full sun in loose, nitrogen-rich soils with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8. Partial shade is important when growing lettuce during the warm season -- it keeps the lettuce from bolting (producing flowers and seeds).

Seeds need to be dried before planting to reduce their moisture content, which helps prevent them from rotting or developing mold. This drying process also helps seeds maintain their viability and germination potential, ensuring successful growth when planted.
lettuce seeds will only germinate in temp' 18-20 and exposed to light
Yes, you can propagate sunflowers by collecting and planting their seeds.
Seeds need to be dry before planting because moisture can cause them to rot or develop mold, which can prevent germination and growth. Dry seeds are better able to absorb water and nutrients from the soil, allowing them to sprout and grow into healthy plants.
