These are the lettuces I planted a few weeks back. They’re looking really great. Here you can see the soaker hose I’d laid in this bed for the day, to give everything a good watering. And if you look closely, you can see the new lettuce sprouts I planted between these heads to ensure a successive harvest. We love our leafy greens!
