We have given up on lettuce on most sandwiches. Cucumber is the superior flavor crunch.
Arugula is quite nice.
Not available in my food desert.
Containers, soil, and seeds. Be your own oasis. 💚
I planted 200 different seeds from a dozen different plants this year. Arugula wasn’t even in the running. Not enough calories, long term storage options, no free seeds from the library, and anything close to lettuce has a bad habit of bolting way too early here. Mustards and collards do much better here. In fact I have a volunteer mustard this year.
Mustard greens work well for a sandwich too.
Cool. I love gardening. Hope you are friends with other gardeners for clippings and sharing the harvest and seeds.
