Luckily they got through it. My lettuce was all started indoors this year, as was most of the spinach. I just recently planted some lettuce seed directly in the garden, but it looks like the birds are eating it as fast as it comes up. I'll have to find the bird netting if I want it for replacing the early lettuce, or else start some more inside.

Probably should have started them indoors this year. <br /><br />And WOW, that is unbelievable about your contractor.

Of course, I do like having them handy to snip into salads and on top of baked potatoes. <br /><br />I'm glad I didn't hire that contractor to paint our house, as I was planning on doing before he messed up the siding. I did it myself (with help from Mr. Granny and our son-in-law), and saved several hundred dollars. Now he doesn't need the job anyway :-)<br /><br />I'm stuffing my face with salad "as we speak"!Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-54597253482279593542013-05-13T17:36:31.170-07:002013-05-13T17:36:31.170-07:00Nancy, we have both been eating BIG salads with al...Nancy, we have both been eating BIG salads with all of our dinners, I pile lettuce high on my sandwiches, the spinach really does cook down to almost nothing, and we both love it freshly steamed, so it takes a lot for even two 1/2 cup servings.
