@jenniferpepler5843 2 года назад

Thanks for the tips! I clean & store my lettuce much the same as you. I soak mine in cold water with a large amount of table salt. I find the salt helps crisp up the leaves. After about 10 minutes or when I remember I rinse each leaf off quickly and put them into a salad spinner. I then use either the veggie zip lock bags with paper towel in it or place it in a large Tupperware container and store in the fridge. My lettuce will last for weeks like this.

@lifeonmockingbirdhill Год назад

How much salt to water do you use?

@niceclaup1 3 года назад

You can layer your greens in cloth dishtowels/napkins too, to save paper & money

@roehee1234 4 года назад

THANKS I just planted red oak leaf lettuce and realized I am clueless how to harvest so it keeps growing.. I'm new to gardening and I am having a real tough time but learning is alot of fun!

@michellestone7761 6 лет назад

So helpful! Thank you 🙏🏽 I planted a whole bunch of organic lettuces (as small plants)...all of them sprouted stalks with flowers and tastes horrible. I didn’t know what the issue was. So glad I learned this. Newbie gardener so I’m eager to learn!

@Grizelda1227 3 года назад

A tip for for future plantings: always trim the flower stalks as soon as they pop up. Also, if you’re plants are bolting or sending up flowers, that is a sign they need a little bit of pruning &/or TLC.

@joesoutdoorplaces 6 лет назад

I am very impressed with the amount of food you are producing in that small space. I am also impressed with the results you are getting with the Good Dirt you used to fill your containers. I’m definitely going to order some. I am already using the Vermisterra products. They do a great job. Throw in your talent and you have a winning combination. Thank you for this series and happy gardening.

@CaliKim29 6 лет назад

Hey there, Joe - thank you for your kind words! it IS amazing how much food can be grown in a little space with a little planning, - utilizing vertical space is key. AND you can't go wrong with the combination of Smart Pots, Good Dirt, Vermisterra worm castings and tea - veggies just explode with growth! Glad you are ordering Good Dirt - you will love it! I just replanted some of my other Smart Pots that have had Good Dirt in them for nearly a year - the soil was still loose and fluffy and looked as amazing as the day I planted it. I just added a handful or two of new Good Dirt, worm castings, watered with worm tea and they were good to go - you will love it! How are those seeds you won growing?

@joesoutdoorplaces 6 лет назад

Hi Kim. I forgot to mention the Smart Pots. I cannot wait to try them. The one the I won in your giveaway I am keeping in my grow room. So far, I have planted the Tiny Tim tomato, Genovese basil, and Grand Rapids lettuce in my grow room. I am waiting until fall to plant the peas, chard, and kale. I will have to wait until next season to plant the rest. I am extremely pleased with the choice of seeds in your Small Space Kitchen Garden Collection. I intend to purchase more of your seed collections for spring. Again, great content on your channel, great instruction, and your enthusiasm for gardening is inspiring. Thank you and take care.

@anomalychasing5383 2 года назад

Love this thanks so much. On impulse I got a dying tiny tub of mixed varieties from bunnings. Looked very sick. Under a good light in my grow tent and its grown massive, so fresh too. In a fabric 5 gallon pot. Awesome.

@patriciatreadway1337 6 лет назад

I love your videos. I learn so much, thank you. I have a yard but I live in the desert so I plant everything in containers. I’m so glad you introduced me to smart pots. Everything is growing nicely in spite of the heat. I harvested my first crops of tomatoes, eggplant, and cucumbers. Happy desert dweller here😋🌿🌱

@CaliKim29 6 лет назад

HI Patricia -it's amazing how many veggies you can grow in containers, isn't it? So glad you are loving the smart pots, they are perfect for a hot climate. And ripe tomatoes already - what a joy! Are those from the Tomato Seed Collection that you ordered? My new Heat Tolerant Greens collection would be perfect for you in your warm climate also. Thanks for watching!

@reyannawynters1800 4 года назад

This is awesome and what's so needed right now! I have some lettuce growing, some tomato plants, peppers and eggplant! Thank you for your lessons in this :)

@Cladman3001 4 года назад

My method is a bit different, I put the harvested lettuce leaves in an ice water bath will about 3 tbs of salt. I let it rest until all the ice is melted. The salt kill the bug and critters. Then I spin it dry, but I have found using a rung out wet paper towel in a zip lock plastic bag allows the lettuce to remain crisp and tasty for about 2 wks.

@smallwondergarden9407 6 лет назад

I keep adding more and more to my small space area. Just got two more hanging window box planters for the fence and got some heat tolerant lettuce going. Thanks for the inspiration!

@CaliKim29 6 лет назад

Good morning! The Vermastera worm tea has been a game changer for me plus the abundance of rain on my garden. I thank God for the rain. 💕👏🏽

@CaliKim29 6 лет назад

Glad you are enjoying the worm tea, Carla. When I started using it almost two years ago, it was a game changer for me too. The rain is always a plus, makes everything so green - wish we had more of it here in So Cal! Thanks for watching!

@larrypease9181 2 года назад

Your video is very helpful I have a little bit larger garden but I enjoy listening to how you harvest your lettuce now I know how I can have more All summer long Thank you again

@kcfromwi 2 года назад

I've been watching your vids and others for close to 7 or 8 years. Since I started thinking about container gardening. So thank you for the info. This one is new to me. And I started growing lettuce the last 2 summers. I tried earlier, but the rabbits kept eating it. So the notion of harvesting it so it keeps grown is very helpful. Since what you describe happened the last 2 years and I had to keep replanting the lettuce. I do have to say. While homegrown lettuce is better. I don't mind eating it out of the store. Or radishes, onions or cucumbers. It's not as good. But tomatoes in the winter suck.

@kimmartin2522 6 лет назад

I don't think there is anything you CAN'T grow. Your videos are great! Thank you

@rosedowning6466 6 лет назад

I have been container gardening for about 5 years and my garden has grown! I grow bush green beans, carrots, peppers, both sweet and hot, tomatoes, cantaloupe, strawberries, basil, oregano, thyme, lettuce, radishes, spinach, and broccoli. All in pots! I have been using the smart pots the past couple of years and I love them.

@LaydeeCrombie 3 месяца назад

You can also store lettuce heads tightly in aluminum foil. It'll last for months. I use this method. It really works.

@CaliKim29 3 месяца назад

Somethings to think about in using that method. Here are some concerns about using aluminum foil. Please note that if it works for you and you are fine with that, etc. no judgment from me, keep on :) Aluminum foil can create and trap moisture around the lettuce heads, leading to faster spoilage/rot, etc. Lettuce needs airflow to stay fresh. Foil can also trap ethylene gas, which accelerates the ripening process and can lead to wilting and decay. Ideally, store lettuce heads in a perforated plastic bag or a breathable produce storage bag. OR, you can wrap lettuce heads loosely in a clean, damp cloth or paper towel and place them in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. Best results: the refrigerator's crisper drawer, where the temperature is slightly cooler and humidity levels can be adjusted. Keeping lettuce cool and dry helps to prolong its freshness and crispness. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! I hope you have liked the video and subscribed (I can't always tell who has!) Best -- CaliKim

CaliKim29 Garden & Home DIY yes Kim it’s so amazing I am just a beginner never did any gardening. I have a question for you my basil leaves keep curling and the leaves are slightly yellow greenish what should I do?

@CaliKim29 6 лет назад

How fun to grow veggies for the first time - glad you are loving it! Make sure your basil is getting regular watering, the soil is not waterlogged, or getting super dry. Here is a video with some watering tips, including how to check for moisture, bit.ly/calikimwateringinsummerheat. It needs at least 6 hours of sunlight a day, and should be pruned regularly to encourage growth, as in this video, bit.ly/calikimbasilendlesssupply. Hope this helps - keep me posted!

@CaliKim29 6 лет назад

Hello Jack - you'll have ripe tomatoes before you know it! Just think how good they will taste, a reward for all your hard work and patience! How the garden grows is so dependent on the weather - tomatoes thrive once the nights are in the 60's and days are 70-85. Hang in there!

@KelseyBritenstine 3 года назад

I do decorative “salad bowls” with different lettuce varieties on my steps instead of flowers. Store bought lettuce is not the same! I had a moment of uncertainty and wanted to make sure I was harvesting correctly (I always pinch, because it’s less shock to the root, right??) and needed a second opinion. Thanks for your video!!!

Thank you so much for this valuable information- first time I plant lettuce- I do have a question, one of my red lettuce is starting to grow a long stalk and the leaves are coming from it but look very small- do I trim the stalk?

@Grizelda1227 3 года назад

Yes, that means your plant is “bolting”. It will send out flowers and die after. It is the plant’s last-ditch effort to spread its pollen/seeds before dying. If you keep up with regular pruning and maintenance, it will not bolt. 👍 cut and remove any flower stalks

@patriciatreadway1337 6 лет назад

The tomatoes I have are a patio variety that I bought. I didn’t discover your RU-vid channel until after all my starts failed. ☹️. I think it is to late to start any of them now, but I might try the Arkansas traveler. I am going to order your lettuce collection. I have my shade cloth ready. We are heading into triple digits soon so it may be in vain. But I think gardening is trial and error and learning from those errors. Have a wonderful weekend and keep those videos coming. I really enjoyed the small space series. I wonder if it’s too late for the dwarf Taylor beans🙏🏻👍😀

@Merlinsluck 4 года назад

Hi great video on lettuce. I have several varieties that are just about finished i believe. I just received my seed order from you and look forward to see the new varieties of lettuce. How long should i harvest? I have several that the main stem is now about 14 inches tall with a few leaves of lettuce growing only on the very top. The full length of the stems are bare? Is it time to pull these and plant new? I am using a raised garden bed and was wondering since it has been about 47 degrees here in Ventura, California at night, can i plant your seeds directly in my garden bed or must i start the seeds indoors? Suggestions? Thanks for the great videos! Me and my Sister recently received our order from you and were pleasantly surprised. You really pay attention to the details! Congrats on the new book! Hope you sell out multiple times! Have a great day!

@markwilliams6375 5 лет назад

Like that dog, and be sure to augment your store bought soil, w/added bat guano, green sand, & ground up egg shells, and rabbit poop, & cow shi - . Wanted, to get your attention, add at least 20% cent Perlite for fast draining, as you don't want to use either Peat Moss or Vermiculite, as BOTH will rot by the 4th. month, also add 10% sand to drain faster, but wash your sand first. Use only top[ soil from some old yard, black dirt, add worm casting soil, and you don't want to use chemicals, as it is in your plant, so stay organic, and water with 1 table spoon of fire wood ashes every 4th. time you water, to raise, keep your P.H. above 6.1 veggies like slightly acidic soil. You can also use small Kiddie wading pools for raising red worms in doors, use a 60 C.F.L. bulb over their bed, so they wont crawl out.

I planted romaine and was trying to harvest it for it to continue to keep producing (not really knowing what I was dooing).. but it seems to just keep growing tall one of the plants does have a flowering at the top. Does that mean it is beyond and not any good? Also... the places where I removed leaves to harvest don't seem to be growing back, Any ideas?
