I tried Giant Caesar two years ago and harvested it as a cut and come again plant. It wasn’t bitter that year . Last year was hot and it bolted and got bitter so I pulled it.

Look for lettuces that grow in hot climates.

This May was crazy hot, so I was impressed by its resilience. Since I filmed this, we had three 95 degrees in a row and it is FINALLY bolting, so I’m going to pick it all shortly. I think shade cloth will be more insurance. I’m eventually going to build covers on all my beds for this reason.

I almost never cut an entire lettuce plant off at once. I normally just pluck a few leaves from multiple plants as I need them, and let them eventually bolt so I can collect the seeds. :) I currently only grow Flashy Butter Gem Lettuce, because it’s really resistant to almost everything my Danish climate/nature throws at them. Slugs don’t really like it, and almost no bugs eat it. I found this lettuce because I bought a packet with a mix of varieties from Baker Creek, and during a particular wet night all the other varieties had been eaten all the way to the ground by slugs, except for the Flashy Butter Gem. :)

This video gave me a great idea. I'm going to make a deep growing frame. Then I'm going to frame out 3 lids for it. One will have plastic, one will have that bug cloth, and one will have shade cloth. I'll be able to just switch out these lids as needed, throughout the year.

@@suffolkshepherd Not that I can think of. I'll try to elaborate on my idea. You build a tall raised bed that gives enough room for both dirt and lettuce. I'm guessing 20 inches tall should be plenty. The lid frames would have two wooden parts. Making an L shape. Inner part, 1x1 boards. Outer part, 2x1 boards. Build inner frame first. Attach what ever top you're creating over the inner frame with wood staples. Then attach outer frame making it look like an upside down L on the outside. This creates a lip over the edges of the bed. I was even thinking that if someone wanted to, they could put the bug screen over the whole thing and the green house screen over part of it for a bug protected and vented green house effect. I hope this helped.

No need to buy anything and you use up a space that you will not use for other sun loving summer crops. Also keeps the ground covered with good stuff.

@@TheMillennialGardener as it happens, I am in Sedona (since 1988) and I did some gardening at my folk's place in Pasadena, Maryland (near Annapolis, so basically sea level, on the water, and humid) before that. I'd say that every zone and part of the world has its challenges. Here we are sort of on the cusp of 8a/8b, though most years lean towards the latter. So we do have some similarities with you - and with our lower desert areas. Unlike them, we do have a 'real' winter and cannot grow tender plants like tomatoes and peppers outside through the winter. Our summers are normally hot and pretty dry, though this year we are having a magnificent Monsoon season so it is humid for a change. Not quite like you ;^). Shade cloth is essential because we can have dramatic temperature changes even within the same day. Here in the high desert of north central AZ we have temperature swings of 20 to 40 degrees daily between our daytime highs and our nighttime lows, all year round. Today is August 24th and I just planted a Mesclun mix in a planter box on my elevated covered deck on the SE corner. We'll see how it goes, I haven't tried to grow lettuce in years. I came to see if I could find any information that could improve my chances. I was just wondering if I need to put something over them to hold in humidity until they start to germinate. Does lettuce require light for that? Or I am considering bringing it inside until it comes up. I love your fact based but positive delivery! Many thanks!

I'm in Canada, cold cold here, and I grow romaine lettuce during summer in grow bags, 7 gallon plus size bags, and I use my own seeds every year. This year, I purchased other variety seeds and see how they will do. I like the idea of shade tarp supported with PVC pipes, which may extend the harvesting a bit longer during cold months. Lettuce, Kale, and Swiss Chard are the main leafy greens of my kitchen garden, and then comes Tomatos, Bell Peppers, Egg Plant, Cucumbers, and super hot Chilli varieties. Yum Yum Season for sure.

In 9b, you will be able to grow lettuce from October thru April virtually effortlessly. For the warmer months, you will want to plan ahead with heat tolerant varieties and provide adequate shade. Don't underestimate the importance of variety selection. It may take trialing a few heat tolerant varieties to find what do well for you. I recommend looking into Jericho Romaine and Giant Caesar Romaine.

Great video with tons of information. We live in 8b coastal SC very similar to your climate. I can't wait to restart some lettuce now instead of waiting till fall. Dale looks so at peace at the beach not a care in the world🥰

Close to Parris Island where the classic romaine was named? 🥬 Our summers are very, very similar for sure.

I love lettuce more than any other vegetable. Thank you for great education and your variety favorites. We're in Texas and use containers on wheels that can be wheeled into shade and under shelter. So, thanks so much! I'll be buying those varieties. No more thinking that lettuce can only be a cold weather crop.
