Verte de Louviers Valerian Seeds – Fresh Corn Salad in 45 Days

Verte de Louviers Valerian seeds are your ticket to enjoying fresh, crunchy, and gourmet salads right from your balcony or garden, even when the cold hits. Also known as Corn Salad or Lamb's Lettuce, this variety offers spoon-shaped leaves with a delicious nutty touch that will upgrade your culinary game instantly, providing you with a continuous supply of greens without the supermarket hassle.

Why grow your own salad greens?

Let’s be real: is there anything more annoying than buying a bag of salad only to find it turning into green sludge in your fridge two days later? You want to eat healthy, but the lack of time to shop daily and the poor quality of supermarket greens make it a constant struggle.

This leads to a cycle of wasting food, throwing away money, and generating unnecessary plastic waste. Plus, you end up eating tasteless leaves that were harvested days ago, losing their nutrients and crunch. It turns the simple act of making a salad into a chore rather than a pleasure.

The solution is simpler than you think: grow your own Verte de Louviers Valerian. This plant is the definition of "fast food" done right. It’s incredibly easy to grow, withstands the cold that kills other plants, and allows you to harvest exactly what you need, fresh from the soil to your plate in minutes.

How this product saves you time and effort

One of the biggest advantages of this variety is its speed and resilience. Unlike demanding crops that need constant attention, Verte de Louviers is a survivor. It thrives in cooler temperatures where pests are less active, meaning you won't have to spend hours fighting off bugs or applying Insecticides cannabis growers usually dread.

Its rapid growth cycle of just 45 days means you get results fast. You don't have to wait months to see the fruits (or leaves) of your labor. This quick turnover allows you to maximize your growing space, planting successive crops so you always have fresh produce available without dedicating your entire weekend to gardening maintenance.

Simple steps to use it without wasting a minute

You don't need to be a master gardener to succeed with these seeds. Follow this simple routine to get your green fix:

1. Prep the spot: Fill a pot or a small area of your garden with good substrate. It doesn't need deep soil.
2. Sow the seeds: Scatter them directly into the soil (July to October is best). Leave about 35 cm between plants if you want full rosettes.
3. Water lightly: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
4. Wait and Harvest: In about 45 days, cut the leaves you need for your meal and let the rest keep growing.
5. Repeat: Sow a few new seeds every two weeks for a non-stop supply.

Tips to integrate it into your habits without friction

To make this effortless, keep a couple of rectangular planters on your windowsill or balcony. Since Verte de Louviers loves cool temperatures, it's the perfect companion to keep your garden productive after you've harvested your summer crops. Pair it with other Vegetable Garden Seeds like carrots or leeks if you have the space, as they get along great.

Make it a habit to check your plants when you water your indoor collection. Since they are low-maintenance, a quick glance is usually enough. Harvesting right before dinner ensures maximum crispness and flavor, turning a boring side dish into the star of the meal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as the medicinal Valerian root?

No, this is Valerianella locusta, commonly known as Corn Salad, Lamb's Lettuce, or Mâche. It is a delicious salad green, not the sedative herb used for tea.

Can I grow it indoors?

Yes, as long as it gets enough light and isn't too hot. However, it thrives best in cooler outdoor air or on a balcony during autumn and winter.

Does it need strong fertilizers?

Not really. It prefers soil that isn't too rich in fresh nitrogen. A standard, well-draining soil mix is usually sufficient for a great harvest.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I honestly love having a tray of Verte de Louviers on my terrace during the winter months. When the cannabis outdoor season is over and the weather gets gloomy, seeing these bright green rosettes thriving in the cold is a mood booster. Plus, the texture is amazing—much softer than lettuce but with a nice crunch.

My trick is to sow them fairly densely in a long planter. I harvest the baby leaves early for a super tender salad, which thins out the crop and lets the remaining plants grow into full-sized rosettes. It’s the easiest way to add a gourmet touch to dinner without having to run to the store.
