Ive grown the “CoastalStar” Romaine for years now, it does well for me up here.
I’ll keep starting these now on into spring and at a point they’ll all go to the greenhouse then into one of the cold frames as the weather moderates. In time i’ll have a roughly structured “rotation” going that will keep us in lettuce thru late fall.
My usual is to sprinkle a dozen seeds on the top of the soil in a #35 pot and lightly scratch them in. 3 weeks later do it again. As they come up i’ll transplant what i need while they are still in the cotyledon stage and i never lose any!
I hammered this teaspoon mostly flat then ground the sides and polished it smooth. It’s about 3/4 wide and extremely handy for lifting small transplants.
