With the cut and come again, you can only really get 3 to 4 good harvest off of it before it is "grown out". Mine bolted and became too bitter to eat. I had a few of the mesclun that I left and it actually headed up and I had some of the hugest heads of lettuce ever!!<br /><br />My daughter is addicted to mints!

You know you are hopeless when you can't even grow mint!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10903548041401360683noreply@blogger.com
