I have a beautiful raised bed full of romaine and tomatos. The romaine has come in wonderfully and I have harvested a few. I have some questions though.
Is it over? I have tasted a slight bitter taste in some of the leaves. I have been told this is because it is too hot now. They may have bolted (?) The leaves are swirly on the inside of the plant. On some of them they are a few inches taller in the middle.
Is there a way to keep growing them a while longer? It went way too fast.
Also, I cut some of them and now new leaves are growing in nicely. Somewhere I read, however, that these won't be as good and I should just replace them. Is this the case?
Thanks for any advice. After 3 years of trying, I am finally starting to have some success. The first 2 years I went without success, this year I changed to a raised bed and I am seeing results. I hope it's not over already for the lettuce. |
