                Don't be sowing your chinese veg in the spring, it'll all bolt: sow it late summer for autumn cropping

                  I've never grown them but I believe Chinese leaves are from the Brassica family - ie are cabbages rather than lettuce.

                  Will be good to see how yours matures.

                  The proof of the growing is in the eating.
                  Leave Rotten Fruit.
                  Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potasium - potash.
