Excellent tutorial! I’ve never tried lettuce but now I will this fall. Thx!!

[@newgardenroad]

Thank you ✨

[@jeanflores2242]

Good info. I find if my seedlings are entwined a bit, they loosen up if I drop them into a bucket of water. The soil falls away and sinks and makes it easier to pull the apart gently.

How do i prevent those light green caterpillar?

[@newgardenroad]

A physical barrier can work well such as a low tunnel hoop structure covered with insect netting. More here ua-cam.com/video/qr5eqXPzMUA/v-deo.htmlsi=VBDqkySrSJVAEkhX&list=UULFNZz3TLLg2V-Ap8FazvAVDg

How many seedlings can a 5 gallon grow bag hold?

[@newgardenroad]

I would estimate 4 based on a 10”-12” grow bag circumference.
