Don’t give up!

Community Community General Gardening Sowing and Growing Disaster Don’t give up!

#23284

This year has been a challenge for all of us. Reminds me of 2007 which was previous wettest summer on record and first year I started commercial growing. Salad transition time is always a nervous time. One day there is so much and the next everything is bolting! I prefer to sow second round of lettuce third week of May to overlap slightly just in case of problems, also sow early Endive first week of May and only lightly pick so there are plenty of leaves as backup for the changeover week, next week. All new lettuces under enviromesh and enviromesh ultra fine for Lettuce root aphid experiment ready to pick next week. Sounds like you are doing well despite everything the weather throws at us! Spain would be too hot for Lettuce anyway…
