Description

Our carefully‑screened corn salad seeds, also widely known as mache or lamb’s lettuce, belong to the popular cool‑season leaf‑green variety Valerianella locusta. All broken, shrivelled tiny seeds and sundry impurities are manually screened‑out to secure stable high‑germination performance. This frost‑resistant hardy vegetable grows compact leaf rosettes with soft spoon‑shaped leaves that carry mild nut‑like flavour. It thrives in cool spring and late‑autumn weather and stays fresh even under freezing temperatures. Well suited for backyard gardens, raised planting beds and small‑scale farm plots, the tender leaves are excellent for fresh salad mixes, side dishes, sandwich toppings and fine‑dining gourmet ingredients.

Planting Guide

Sowing time: Sow seeds in early‑spring or late summer to early autumn; avoid hot summer months when high‑temperature causes seed dormancy
Soil condition: Choose loose, well‑drained loamy soil with pH 6.0‑7.0, mix decomposed organic compost to boost soil fertility
Sowing specification: Bury seeds 0.5‑1 cm beneath soil surface, keep 15‑18 cm row spacing, thin seedlings to 8‑10 cm apart after sprouting
Light condition: Full‑sun works for cold seasons; provide partial afternoon shade under warm weather to stop premature bolting
Water management: Keep top‑layer soil consistently moist but never water‑logged; proper drainage prevents root rot
Daily care: Clear competing weeds around seedling plants, add diluted balanced fertilizer once young leaves grow, prevent slugs and snails
Harvest time: Pick fresh tender leaf rosettes 50‑60 days after sowing; cut outer leaves for repeated cut‑and‑come‑again harvest
