Lettuce lessons

A couple weeks ago I bought lettuce starts from a nursery because they were just SO much bigger than my starts out in the garden. I felt defeated when I put these beautiful greenhouse plants in next to my tiny seedlings. But regard the lettuce patch today. Who started in the greenhouse?


Hint - it's the ones with the generous spacing, not the ones that are already mashed up against each other.

I let kale go to seed in this garden two years ago, and thus I will probably never have to plant kale again.

  1. 2 years later I can vouch for the "never planting kale again" premonition. The stuff still comes up EVERYWHERE! I'm going to have harvest about 50 kale plants just to plant my edamame this year!
