Lettuce is an achievement. Luck was not always with me, all this while. Once, they had germinated well, but somewhere along the way dried up and died. Not this time..., extra care was taken to ensure that, they survive to the end....... Not many, just 8 in two long container and 5 in medium size white pots, so 13 altogether. Somehow lettuce has biological clock identical to Pak Choy, they germinated at the same time and the timing of new leaves emerging is identical too.

If i am in your area Bangchik I would love to visit your garden. It is very impressive and professionally done
ReplyDeleteMy 1st time with Pak choi was 100% successful! Never planted Lettuce before.
ReplyDeleteHow Kak Dah cook with Lettuce?
My previous batch of lettuce took 3 months to germinate. This time, no shadow yet :(
ReplyDeletebang chik... bila dah dlm pasu mcm tu dah tak payah alih lagi ye... biar je sampai dia besar + tuai...
ReplyDeleteyr lettuce had been a living evidence for yr premiership. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteLettuce don't need deep containers. They can even grow big in instant noodle cup. All those baby seedlings look happy in your tender loving care.
ReplyDeleteI love pak choi and now that you have explained how easy it is, my only excuse for not growing it is laziness. Thanks for this inspiring post.

Too many factors why veggies grow or fail. We are not very methodical and clinical like PhD researcher, so a bit of failure is acceptable....

lettuce taken raw as salad. I am not always lucky with lettuce. The worst when none germinated, all turned into humus :)

ReplyDeletemysterious lettuce! You never know when they want to wake up.

baru alih dari bekas kecil ke pasu 4 inci. Malas nak alih-alih lagi dah.

You chose such a big word "premiership". Bottomline is getting involved, get in, absorbed, immersed... something like "buying-in".

Huh, sufficient with maggie cup?...I should have placed all of them in a container!

like malaykadazangirl said, they can just grow big in instant noodle cup. Easy.
