Very nice. Are your cut-come again or are you starting over after each pick?
What types of lettuce are you growing?
Do you direct plant a single seed or start in rockwool / something else?
I started my first lettuce about the same time as you but outside in 7 Earthbox Juniors and 5 troughs (EB knockoffs) . I sowed the first 2 days apart and then 3 until they were all sowed.
I've picked: Johnny's Mix (twice), Buttercrunch, Red Sails, and Red Salad (restarted this).
Left the others for cut-come again. I sowed really thick; but don't think I'm anywhere near 3.5 lbs worth.
Red Sails has done well for cut and come again last year; and Johnny's mix is doing well with C/C.
On the Romaine (Parris Island) I transplanted single plants in with broccoli and into another EB Jr and they have taken off. The original box with the Paris Island seems to have benefitted from thinning the herd but probably still too thick to have much bulk.
