James continues to be my favorite garden person. Energetic, informative, goes to the point, and never, ever complains about his fan base! Thanks, James!
Love the tips. I learn each time I watch. I pull my lettuce head with root when ready to harvest whole head. This way I put it on the kitchen counter in a cereal bowl Of water. The lettuce keeps longer as I can’t eat the whole head at one meal. And it looks so fresh and pretty on the counter.
You are an inspiration and God loves you. You where the first one to inspire me to make a food forest back when I was just wanting to live off the land. I lost all my friends my wife cheated on me And stole all my money and now I live alone in he Appalachia mountains in a small home with land nearby. I spent all I had on supplies for this food forest am foraging all my vgetabls and non bulk dehydrated foods until I can grow some. I currently live off the land and do all my cooking lighting and essentials with solar I depend on this land for survival this food forest and trashed land I just purchased that im cleaning up is my only hope and will be doing it this season with a potentialy broken wrist. I found an abundance of everything in nothing and am happier then I ever was when I had everything I thought I needed. God bless you James without this technique and your wisdom you shared I dont think I'd be ale to survive how I need to. God bless you James I hope you recieve everything you want in life one love to you :) if your ever in the Sussex County area let me know I have 3.7 acres in a state forest with a nice stream for tucky to cool of in
Your dog reminds me of my dog in the garden 😄 My Teddy is still just a 5 month old maltipoo but he follows me through every task and sometimes he will try to help me weed & he loves digging the holes for me to drop seeds in, we've been planting this week & every day he goes out with me and sniffs every single plant to make sure they are still okay, I guess 🤷♀️ plus he's even learning to keep the chickens out of the garden. Gardening is so much more fun with a little buddy to help out! You have great content, thanks for sharing!
On May 10th I didn't know what I was going to plant in my front porch planters, but figured I'd scatter some seeds and might actually get plants started by the time I get around to filling the planters. Well today on June 9th, I harvested some lettuce from those scattered seeds since I still haven't planted them up 😆🥬 There are also some basil seeds germinating in the back of the planters. They're so quick! I also started some from seed and I believe some germinated in only 1 or 2 days! It was incredible!
Boy James, you throwing out some fantastic knowledge on the lettuce. I had no idea how delicate they were, I would prefer starting seeds in trays as well. I tell you, you have a lettuce for evey day, you will not get tired of eating the same over and over. Good thing you start seeds elsewhere, that little Tuck likes to get in on the action. Always a great video. Thank you James and Tuck.❤❤❤❤❤🐶🐶🐶❤❤❤❤❤
Hi James. I wanted to let you know that I built a hinged hoop house for a steel raised bed this fall. I planted in it a little late, by the time I had everything done, but my plants all survived the cold weather of last week. I live in SE PA, in Zone 6B, a half zone colder from you. I only put one layer of plastic on my bed, but then cover it with frost cloth (just right on top of the plastic, although it mostly just touches at the top). I let it drape to the ground where I weight it with bricks. When it got really cold, I put hoops inside the plastic hoop house I built, and put another layer of plastic inside. I uncovered today and almost all plants survived (all lettuces, kale, cabbage, cilantro, etc) other than those that were touched by the inner layer of plastic along the edges. (there was ice on top of that inner layer of plastic). I hope Tuck is well, and look forward to more of your videos.
Miners lettuce is also know as Winter Purslane, it generally grows in Spring not Winter, mine is growing now and I can make a salad with it, but it's also starting to flower. So it really is a misnoma to call it winter lettuce.
I like dusting the top of my lettuce seeds with dry peat moss when planting. It’s very light. Then I mist the top. The solar flare lettuce looks beautiful!!
I started lettuce seeds in 2 Greenstalks on my porch to avoid the majority of pests. It holds 30 lettuce heads each so we can pick leaves as needed for sandwiches or side salads.
Hey James and Tuck. I have to say its very inspiring to see all of what you have accomplished with your garden. Its made me start my own garden in my back yard 3 years ago. And when im not successful in something you and Tuck inspire me to keep growing. I have planted more varieties and plants this year than i have ever done and really excited for this year. I really love these videos and i love seeing Tuck. Thanks for teaching me to be a better gardener.
Just planted lettuce today. I did not thin while they were in the seed tray..😬. Maybe I’ll thin right now! Thank You for your show. Have been a subscriber for ~2 years now
Me too. I got almost 100% germination of my tomato seeds, so I have transplanted lots of doubles to red solo cups. If they grow enough by June 6, I will have to give plants away. I have room for only 28. I have at least 6 varieties. Canning and freezing this year.
I have a type of leaf lettuce that reseeds itself every year and is tender. So rainy on the West Coast this year so heaps of little seeds have started up. Love growing lettuce
I direct sowed some lettuce seed in early December 2021, covered it when it started to grow and it sort of stayed dormant but it’s taken off and they’re huge! And yummy!
I really like the way you cull the seedlings; it’s genius! Most people just pull them from the soil, disturbing roots of the healthiest plant in the process. Cutting them at the base makes so much more sense, especially for very sensitive sprouts like lettuce and carrots.
Just transplanted my lettuce seedlings two days ago and they have already doubled in size! I kept thinking they were tiny still for being 2 months old but I think they just wanted more space.
I'm in New Zealand, I've been watching you for a while now, your garden is great. Its the beginning on winter here/late autumn and I put lettuce in about 6 weeks ago I will be able to harvest lettuce, daikon, spinach, pak choi, wong bok and a few other Chinese green leafy veges all winter. But they bolt so fast in spring and summer here.
We have very hot summers, so I do two plantings, one for spring and one for fall. But when we get to summer, I plan on one or two plants bolting, and I use those for my seed each year. I often miss some of the seeds, so usually my fall planting is half self down.
I'm trying to grow enough lettuce to share with all of my neighbors🌱💕James thanks for being an inspiration and and bigger thanks for always sharing tuck with us💛 Lettttsssssss Gooooooo!!
Thank you James. Appreciate all the information and the video. Your lettuce looks amazing as does the rest of your garden. Looking forward to your next video.
This is my first year gardening and I’m clueless. I just learned more in your 17 min. video than I have reading an entire gardening book and countless other podcasts and UA-cam videos. Thank you!!
Hey bro, your videos have helped me grow and thus grow as a Gardner. What I’ve looked for and haven’t seen is a video of must have tools to start an efficient garden. Also, where can I send you pictures of the garden you inspired me to design? Thanks brother!
Thanks for your input. Still haven't quite figured out growing in the desert (Tucson). I think I'm going to get a hydroponic tower garden forwater conservation.
Adding some vermiculite to the soil mix really seems to help the seeds and seedlings of lettuce and basil. It makes the soil lighter and more moisture-retentive.
I’ve never cared much for dogs, but your Tuck is the cutest, sweetest little good-hearted companion. You are blessed. Also love the info on this channel.
Thanks for the tips on growing lettuce James!! Now I know what happened to mine last year. I had it in full sun and only got a minute amount before they went to seed!! After watching this, I should have better luck this year. Thanks again!!!
14:53 bro decent ??? No way you are a master of the art definitely goat status I just finished the video and seen the rest of them plus I seen ur tomato tree u a goat🐐! The plants can definitely feel ur love and the energy u put in to taking care of them ⚡️definitely thanks for this knowledge im gonna watch more of ur videos 🌿🌱🪴🎍☘️🌴🌳🌺🌸🌼🌻🌹🌷🌾🌾🍂🍁🎋🪴🎍☘️☘️🌳🌴🌵🥀
Hey Team Tuck! I like eating my own lettuce over anything in the Supermarket. When I was growing up, my father said that Lettuce was an antidepressant and all I know is that I feel healthy and satisfied eating lettuce every which way! I use it as wraps for Asian dishes, on sandwiches, and even grilled on the BBQ. The colors, shapes, flavors and manner of harvesting has enough variety to add even more interest. Thanks for taking the time to take us on your journey! Cheers!
Great video. I have been struggling with my greens. Especially the lettuce. Total fail this year. But you have shown me so many ways I can improve. Next time will be better.
This was so helpful! I had no idea how "lightly " to plant lettuce seeds. Package & others say 1/4in... tried & didn't work. I did get a few sprouts(very few) but didn't last long, maybe to much water as you mentioned! Going to try again! :) TY
I'm learning how to grow lettuces. This is my second year. I've actually gotten the items I need to turn my garden into a hoop house so I can grow in the winter too....or at least I hope to lol. Thank you for all you do ❤️
Thank you James. Perfect timing for lettuce. Wow. So much in square foot. We'll be starting some inside thanks to you. The varieties sure will make salads more inviting. We had a great harvest with all your pruning tips for Cucumbers. Really grateful and so satisfying to be successful.
Hi James, just came in to say hi to you and of course Tuck, the cutiest head of garden security. good idea of lettuces in buckets/containers. 🍻 from Toronto 🇨🇦. ❤️🪴
Have you ever had trouble growing parsnips? I have never been able to grow them from the bought seed. Any chance of a video with how to grow parsnips successfully please.
There's a company called Sow Easy that makes pelleted seeds of all the tiny seed varieties. They take the tiny seeds and make them about the size of a BB
@@skinnyWHITEgoyim Ive tried those before i got them from harris seed in New York they dont keep well planted a whole tray 48 cells not one came up seeds were only 3 years old.
James olá somos do Brasil estou adorando seu canal estamos surpresos como em um área tão pequena você consegue plantar vairias tipos de verduras e frutas Edson e Zilda Brasil
Jim, I had a horrible time germinating lettuce. Don’t know if starting mix was inadequate or seeds were too old or just planted wrong. Your seed start looks a heck of a lot heavier than mine, yet you had success. I wish there was a video that discussed best seed start mixes, lifespan of seeds, etc.
Awesome tips! I went with buying transplants for my lettuce this year, being my first gardening year. I did a lot of sowing myself but not lettuce! Maybe next year. Great content for me to save!
🇩🇰🇹🇹What an inspiration. Very inspiring to watch. I am dreaming to have my own garden🪴. Never to late to learn. I have the appetite to eat a salad 🥗 with tomatoes 🍅 cucumbers 🥒 corn 🌽 etc. yummy 🤤 Lovely 🥰
Thank you ! You are so informative! Love to grow lettuce ! I use the winter sowing method for my lettuce ! I live in Ohio, northern and I put the lettuce seeds in gallon water containers with soil and by April/ May they are ready to be planted in the garden! Amazing 😊 next year I will plant my gallon buckets in intervals, so I have lettuce growing all the time ! I put them planted and watered in Feb 23 and by Spring they are ready to be planted 😍! Look up winter sowing on you tube and have fun growing your own lettuce 😍💕😇🙏🏼
Great Video!. I have never had much luck with transplanting. So I just throw the seeds in and and they always seem to come up on their own 90% of the time.
Absolutely love growing lettuce! Been doing high intensity in 10 gallon pots but gonna build some raised beds soon. since we just bought our house, it's go time!!
Thanks for the tips here in Australia 🇦🇺 we are late autumn (fall) and I’m growing more lettuce varieties but I’m temperate climate so a heat tolerant lettuce is great , thanks for the tip
James seems like he is a good soul. We need more people like this. Really enjoy his show and also seeing Tuck.
If he had the best soul he would feature foster dogs in his videos
Yes.. we need more people like this in Jersey!!!! He represents the good folks here well 😀
His lettuce looks really good
Does anyone know what that purple/black looking lettuce is in his garden? (Not the lunox one, the other one at the beginning of the video)
@@elizabeths5032 And THIS is why we are sick of foster dogs being pushed on us!! NAZI mentality.

I'm growing that Forellenschluss lettuce, along with Merlot, Ruby Red, Lollo Rosso, and Tom Thumb.
My kids love watching your channel and seeing Tuck!
Good thing you're talking about protecting the lettuces because we're going to see some insane heat ramping up this upcoming weekend.

James GREAT hint of the 40% shade cloth! It gets pretty hot here in Northern California, so far another early week of 90s°

So I finally know why my lettuce was bitter to dry, I'm new to gardening and just figured it was a bad season but no, so cheers to better lettuce
Just started growing lettuce from seed...this video is SO informative! Thx for sharing!

The lettuce has done so great with this cool spring! I saw a cold out there in my food forest today! He popped up out of the leaf mulch!

You are the man! Tuck is the garden police! Thanks for all you do!
James, your garden and presentations are great!👍 I am a fan.
Love starting transplants. Beats the pest cycle. Less losses
I pit the seeds on opposite corners and if both germinate I split the transplants
Me too. I got almost 100% germination of my tomato seeds, so I have transplanted lots of doubles to red solo cups. If they grow enough by June 6, I will have to give plants away. I have room for only 28. I have at least 6 varieties. Canning and freezing this year.
Dude seriously…you are so good at giving GREAT information that I’m just not finding elsewhere…wonderful information 🙏💙💙. Thank you 😊 💙🙏
This year I planted Merlot lettuce and so far in high 80s low 90s Mississippi heat it's growing beautifully
Yeah merlot is a great heat tolerant one as well
I have a type of leaf lettuce that reseeds itself every year and is tender. So rainy on the West Coast this year so heaps of little seeds have started up. Love growing lettuce
Hey Lori...what lettuce seed? Another West Coast gardner.
@@ravenwildspirit just leaf lettuce: red & green varieties. I always let 1 or 2 go to seed every year and end up with 15-20 growing mid-May next year!
I direct sowed some lettuce seed in early December 2021, covered it when it started to grow and it sort of stayed dormant but it’s taken off and they’re huge! And yummy!
Another excellent video. I've had good results sprouting lettuce seeds in hydroponic pebbles in a net cup and water then transplanting.
Your passion toward and knowledge of plants makes this one of my favorite gardening channels on youtube. 👍
I really like the way you cull the seedlings; it’s genius! Most people just pull them from the soil, disturbing roots of the healthiest plant in the process. Cutting them at the base makes so much more sense, especially for very sensitive sprouts like lettuce and carrots.
not even kidding, I'm putting seeds in a germination trays right now and lettuce was my next seed package
Haha me and Tuck new it, we were just waiting for you to finish the last pack before the lettuce 😁
Just transplanted my lettuce seedlings two days ago and they have already doubled in size! I kept thinking they were tiny still for being 2 months old but I think they just wanted more space.

"Forellenschluss" means "Trouts end". You can eat it as sald or you can fry it in a little butter and salt. 😊

When I was younger I remember i had grown a little lettuce plant, tomato plant, and carrot plant. I was so proud of that salad
Love the spacing tip depending whether it’s spring or fall
Adding some vermiculite to the soil mix really seems to help the seeds and seedlings of lettuce and basil. It makes the soil lighter and more moisture-retentive.
