Abstract
Experiments with summer cabbage lettuce are described in which the response to irrigation at different plant spacings was determined for both field-sown and transplanted early summer crops.Lettuce of good marketable size and quality were produced at a square spacing of 9-10 in. during a wet period and at a similar spacing during a dry period when irrigation was given. For unirrigated crops in a dry period a spacing of about 12 in. square was needed to produce lettuce of a similar size.Irrigation given only once, about two weeks before harvest, was almost as effective as irrigation given throughout growth.
