#BeetBear took over today and first went out to check on the pole beans we planted a few days ago. He was pleased to see that they have begun to sprout so he offered them some encouragement. He then set about harvesting some lettuce (Muir) (SummerCrunch) and set out some fresh lettuce seedlings in the gaps where the harvested lettuce was. Of course, he watered everything in before he came in to have is bacon sandwich with LOTS OF LETTUCE!

@richrollgardener I got a pair of those silicone seedling trays and I’m sad to say I hate them! How do you get your seedlings out cleanly?
@donkeyherder I've had mixed results on that score. If there's a good root system and the soil is slightly on the dry side, it works great, otherwise it's a gamble. It was my attempt to get away from using peat pots.
