45 Salads/Thinning Lettuce in a Container



My Buttercrunch lettuce was getting crowded so I thinned it to about 5 inches apart like the seed packet suggested.


Unfortunately, this didn't leave me very much lettuce.  I could only fit eight little seedlings in my container.  I hated to harvest the little ones this early so I looked around my yard for some space.  And there was room right by the front steps.  Lots of room - enough for 37 seedlings!  This means that we will soon be eating 45 salads.
