Wow. Very cool. I assume that is not very fun to eat. I will have to try planting romaine next year.

It tastes amazing. And I think it’s weird to even talk about the taste of lettuce, but it actually has flavor when it’s very fresh.
The other thing about being so fresh: you can cut it up for salads and keep the cut greens in a container for days before they wilt and brown. I was amazed that this worked but if you think about it a store lettuce has been sitting for a few days most likely….
How much sunlight do they need? I have a relatively humid back yard which gets maybe 2 hours sunlight a day. Enough?
I believe that will be too little for them, sadly, though you could always try it. They want more like 6 hours.
