I like to plant the root end of lettuce I buy from the store.
Nice, but HOW DO WE GROW THEM/
I grew some last year..and will certainly grow even more this year…!! I did not buy a lettuce for at least 3 months…I like to grow Arugula too…Arugula and Brie panini….yum..!
I got a 1/2 Dome 2 feet high , 3 feet wide from my neighbor in oct. I've been growing lettuce in it here on the Shore in CT. Slowly but it gets fyll sun when it's sunny.
I love that you try to keep your videos as concise and brief as possible while still providing great info. I wish more content creators would do this. Thanks, Jeff!
Thanks, Jeff! The Butter lettuce types are my favorite!

I absolutely love growing Little Gem romaine lettuces. You can use them in sandwiches, on burgers (I use the baby leaves when I am thinning out the plantings) and the taste is salads is amazing. Never tried the buttercrunch, may give it a go once my seeds for Little Gems depletes a bit.
Thank you Jeff.. enjoying a beautiful crop of lettuce right now. Mainly curly green and red
Thanks Jeff.
Hi Jeff, it’s such a warming thought to be thinking of planting my spring lettuces. But here in zone 6b in SWMO US we’ve been watching temps in the teens and single digits. But, the end of February, to the first of March I’ll be planting my seeds indoors. Are last frost date here is April 14th. Good luck and God Bless, stay warm and safe.
I grow iceberg, butter, and mostly romaine! My all time favorite.
Have you got any idea on how to grow melons?
You are always right there with some great information and laid back presentation….very relaxing and enjoyable and HELPFUL!!
Thank you as always….Jesus bless.
What about Endive Lettice
I also love you n your show alot to learn I'm short time. Thank you
I gave trouble with iceberg it does make a head
Thanks for the info Jeff! I might have to try growing the Romaine. Take care!
I grow lettuce indoors during the winter, nothing like a fresh salad when is 20 degrees outside.
Hi Jeff. I'm wondering when to start lettuce. I guess I should just search your videos. So enjoy your weekend. Take care. Thank you
How do you regrow Romaine lettuce? I think that’s what it’s called. I got seeds…
Does it flower at some point if you don’t harvest it like carrots? Or something? Sorry for the dumb questions, like I said I’m new and want to regrow what I can without buying seeds again
