DIY Lettuce Bar 🥬

I started these lettuce seeds in a 2” seed starting cell tray on 1/27/25. Let them grow nice and big for 36 days and then potted them into a self-watering table trough that I grabbed at @homedepot

Now I can have lettuce anytime I want without going to my garden! Just snip a few loose leaves and voila! 🪄

This is actually my 4th attempt at lettuce & Im crossing fingers this method works for me. I put it containers last August but since lettuce is a cool season plant, it bolted pretty quick bc we were still in warm season. I tried direct sowing into the ground in September but still too warm and didn’t get great germination. Once I had seedlings, bugs/critters chomped on the baby leaves. I tried again in December with same outcome.

My office stays pretty chilly year-round & I think (and hope) this will be a good spot for my lettuce. They are sitting in an east facing window so they’ll be protected from any hot Texas sun coming into warm & hot season.

I’ve linked the trough I bought in my IG highlights. Or you can comment SHOP and the bots will DM you the info if you want it that way. 💕✨

🌱Seedling progress - Texas 8b

It’s been a cold few days in my building. I don’t heat my warehouse in the winter. When it gets super cold, it can get in the 40s in there. Especially without having the sun out to warm the structure.

My seedlings have been on the warming mats full time. And my grow lights have been on 16 hours/day. I’ve been running a space heater when I’m in the building…not to try and get them to a specific tent but to just help warm up the air around them. Plus it’s exposing them to a breeze. I also added a sheet on the outside for when that space heater is on to help funnel the warm air.

I just planted another round this past Sunday (5 days ago) and I’m seeing sprouts already with my Morning Stars and a few Nasturtiums. I’m finally seeing some of my Lisianthis seedlings emerge. Dangggg they are tiny!!

Have you bought your 🧅onion🧅 starts??

I went shopping over the weekend to buy mine, but my garden isn’t quite ready for me to put them in the ground just yet!

So I’m potting them up so they have a cushy place to live until it’s time for them to go into the ground.
