Lettuce


Lettuce (in Hebrew: חסה) Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) is an annual plant of the daisy family, Asteraceae, most often grown as a leaf vegetable.

First cultivated by the ancient Egyptians who turned it from a weed into a plant grown for its leaves.

Lettuce is an excellent source of vitamin K and vitamin A, as well as folate and iron.

Hydroponic lettuce cultivation has expanded rapidly to improve water efficiency and reduce pesticide use.
