A raised bed under an apple tree ,, Grows no bitter - almost sweet , somewhat crunchy leaf lettuce , Salad Bowl ,, That can be done with that , as why it is a long time standard usual leaf type offering , People here won't eat Romaine , I will ,,, I like the white Ribs , that crunch , and the cabbage too ,
Takes a really good soil , and free of bugs (insects) to grow good lettuce ,
I started by growing a few in a pot , under a tree , out of later and noon time sun , not bad ,,
Still comes back to the old it takes practice to grow a really good to excellent green , if you can really taste anything ,,
I am a grumpy old fudd aint I Hilarious!
Kids ,, "yeah ,, Elmer the farmer "
That was actually my grandfathers middle name , and here was really a farmer Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
In the Butterfly garden if a plant is not chewed up I feel like a failure
