Lettuce grows so well here this time of year. The weather is just right temp wise as well as plenty of moisture and humidity. Since lettuce is nearly all water, there is a good reason for making sure the soil does not get too dry or you will see brown edges around the leaves, which is not attractive.

I love to grow the loose leaf lettuces both green and red as they are very easy and make such a pretty salad. I even share with my fish in the fishing pond. They love greens too!
