Although if I had won, you would be obliged to smash the jar of canned goodness, place in a baggy with a lame note and then send to me in several weeks.

I thin mine when they're just these spindly little bits by pinching off the unwanted ones between my thumb and forefinger nail. I try to allow at least an inch, if not more, between seedlings. Don't pull them though - just pinch them. It'll keep the roots from being disturbed. <BR/><BR/>If they look like <A HREF="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_q3NWFMxLtRI/R_qZ0Q17hNI/AAAAAAAAQKo/ZN5PFfZXA1Y/s1600-h/IMG_6243.jpg" REL="nofollow">this</A>, it's definitely time to thin. For the record, the thinned lettuce from this lump grew up big and strong and gave us many salads. :) I love growing lettuce!FinnyKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813175777047535103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-55302000079879915362009-03-18T15:41:00.000-07:002009-03-18T15:41:00.000-07:00Oh!

Why do I never win? <BR/>Anyways...I am growing lettuce for the first time, and as you are the only person that I "know" who has grown lettuce I was wondering if you could answer a really simple lettuce growing question for me? Please please please. <BR/>When should I thin my lettuce seedlings? They are about 2 inches tall now and very crowded.<BR/>You wouldn't believe the stupid answers that you get if you type that question into google.<BR/>Thanks in advance!Jemima Jones Beckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18166031427030581781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-76101819895381081462009-03-18T10:22:00.000-07:002009-03-18T10:22:00.000-07:00Dammit! I wanted that tampon holder. Wait. I me...Dammit! I wanted that tampon holder. Wait. I mean the arugula pesto!!<BR/><BR/>I think I've decided lemon cukes have no place in my garden this year. I had too many of them get hard on the vine before I picked them last year, or were way toooo seedy. I had better luck with more "normal" cukes, so that's the way we're going... You enjoy your lemon cukes!Jephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843262392217281569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15363790.post-68113519425394857262009-03-17T20:24:00.000-07:002009-03-17T20:24:00.000-07:00HAAAA.
