Lettuce has a rather poorly developed root system, therefore it requires fertile soils with regulated air-water ratios. Lettuce can be grown in sandy-loamy soils, alluvial soils, chernozems and peat soils. The most suitable are soils with a pH between 6.0-7.5. Despite the low use of nutrients from the soil, lettuce has high nutritional requirements. These plants are sensitive to deficiencies of boron, manganese and calcium. If soil analysis has not been performed, the number of mineral fertilizers per hectare at the sites in the first year after applying manure should be: 60-80 kg N, 50-100 kg P₂O₅, 100-120 kg K₂O.
