    There’s nothing better than being able to harvest fresh sweet buttery lettuce at home.
    Enjoy!
    #gardening #fallgarden #growyourownfood
    Butterhead lettuce is name from the sweet buttery flavor and delicate texture of the large, ruffled outer leaves. Useful in a number of dishes, butter lettuce is rich in nutrients and can easily be added to salads, sandwiches and wraps. Avoid storing lettuce with apples, pears or bananas as they release a natural ripening agent that will cause brown spots and the leaves will decay quickly.

    The hardest part of planting in FL when moving here from other parts of the country is knowing when to start with the heat here. My biggest question is do you have any problems with bugs?

  • @kele1264
    @kele1264 3 года назад +1

    Part of my container garden is nine 5-gallon buckets. I used a one-inch hole saw to drill drainage holes, like you did. I didn't want my soil to spill out of the holes, and I sure didn't want pests burrowing up through the holes, so I cut high quality landscape fabric to fit the inside bottom of each bucket, then added my soil and continued on with my little container garden journey. I did the same with the large storage tub containers. I've been very happy with that set-up. It's just a little patio container garden, but it makes me happy. For bigger dreams, I watch your channel! I love every single garden thing you do. And every chicken thing also! 🐓🐣🐥🥬🍅🥦🥒🥕🥔

    I live in Suriname where its very hot/warm. I grow mine in the shade and harvest on time. I dont have any problem. The ones on the balcony get bright day light but no sum directly on them. Those are also good but just need more water. I just the product that he does like the bloodmeel and I sen them grow amazing. Hope this helps for the ones living in similar weather as me.

    This is my favourite salad green because it stays crunchy longer than the others. I love the heart of the butterhead so I'm glad y'all get to enjoy that. Though if I were to grow them at home in my tiny balcony I might have to sacrifice the heart in order to get more leaves for more salads. I love these progression videos and I'm glad to have them back. They also make me want to rewatch the other progression and cooking videos which I have already watched many times.

I am having some success however I have made alot of mistakes. I have watched about 4 of your videos so far tonight. All I can say as a rookie Gardner is your videos have educated more than any others I have seen! Thank you both for taking the time to create this type of video. I know creating this took alot of time and effort! Your videos have truly educated me! I was getting a touch discouraged but not anymore. Thanks again , be well, and god bless!

    Oh how beautiful that lettuce is! Hollis and Nancy, did you work in the food growing business for a living? Or, perhaps just always been drawn to gardening? I’ve always loved it. It’s so rewarding to plant a seed, watch it come up and grow, and be able to harvest it and eat it!! It’s a God thing, for sure!
    Keep up the videos. I love watching y’all. Blessings always!!❤️❤️❤️
