  1. How do you know when to harvest lettuce? What’s the best height to harvest that isn’t bitter?
    Harvest timing for lettuces would be a great video!
    Thanks for another great video.

  2. Advantage to cutting of the way you are vs just cutting individual leaves? We usually just keep picking/cutting individual leaves off the main stem. This has worked for us, but is time consuming. What is your thought on the difference?

  3. beautiful lettuce looks like my hugelkultur bed lettuce right now. If our ever in the portland oregon area I would love to give you a tour. My farm is a hybrid of hugelkultur and jean martin fortier techniqeus! Also great video on the calcium I agree its the best all around mineral you can add.. Especily to red soils low in calcium gypsum, lime, wood ashe, they all create a chemical reaction that will help quickly break down the clay into more oxygen rich organic matter

  4. I really want to give this a shot, because space is super limited at my current place. And I love lettuce! It's crazy you get that much out of such a small area. Thanks for the video!

  5. I just found you from Doug and Stacy's Channel! I'm wondering, what do you do when your lettuce starts to Bolt? Do you have tips to keep your lettuce from Bolting? I'm waiting to collect the Seeds from our Bolted Lettuce. Thanks from So Calif

  6. Great video. For how long may this cut and come again method work? Can I continually add nutrients to my soil and keep the same lettuce root and core to continually grow lettuce all year?

  7. For new gardener's and urban farmers, would you mind explaining how you fertilize and feed the soil while doing high intensity since you cant turn over the bed because you're constantly doing the cut and come again method. Thank you so much!

  8. I need help I have brown spots on my lettuce is it safe to eat still? 1st time gardener I tried your technique and planted them all close together could it be it got to much water during a storm we had is that what that plastic is for, for your lettuce? And how do I prevent browning spots on the leaves and advice would be helpful please and thank you
