You have a great harvest this week! I hope your lettuce resists the heat!

It does form a head, but not as solid as iceberg I don't think, and I harvest the outer leaves. So far it and Red Sails are the only two varieties that haven't either bolted or been very close. After all the "floppy" lettuces (that's what my son calls leaf lettuces), the Anuenue is a very welcome addition.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-51410080777225187572013-06-17T16:13:05.278-07:002013-06-17T16:13:05.278-07:00LOL, Cloud, if I were about 45 years younger, I...LOL, Cloud, if I were about 45 years younger, I'd trade him in for you!

On one hand, the canes are loaded. On the other hand, many of the berries are so small they aren't worth the bother of picking. It's only a small (4'x8') bed, but one year I got over 17 pounds of berries from them. No way am I going to see that amount again! I'm so tempted to get rid of these canes and go to an everbearing variety, then I think of all the work involved in digging them out and eradicating all the suckers that show up all over the garden, and I change my mind and make do with what I have. The are awfully good and sweet.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597627580631284872.post-63763851675513880122013-06-17T10:05:16.678-07:002013-06-17T10:05:16.678-07:00What a harvest!
