Lettuce experiment

Ben on August 12th, 2008

I planted out a tray of Green Mignonette lettuce about 2 weeks ago, I tried to do the right thing and separate them all out and plant them in rows. Having run out of room to spread them out, with the left over plants I simply slid them out of their tray into a spot in the garden.
Since then they have both been given the same water and nutrients, yet the separated ones have grown far slower.

I think *and hope* that when it comes to picking time, the separated lettuces have performed better than their sardine like cousins who are squished in together.
