Prickly lettuce is generally considered to have straightforward care requirements, thriving in environments that resemble its natural habitat. Key to prickly lettuce's care is ensuring well-drained soil and moderate watering, as overwatering can lead to root rot. Prickly lettuce requires full sun exposure to develop fully but can tolerate partial shade. It's advisable to monitor for common pests like aphids and provide support for its stalk as it grows taller to prevent bending or breaking.
