Lettuce Plus


Its been raining today and I figured its the right time to transplant my lettuce seedlings. So I gathered the remaining lettuce from the garden to make room for the new transplants. I gathered some eggplants and Kinchay or leaf celery.
The rain almost always makes it foolproof to plant such delicate plants like the lettuce. It doesn’t show any transplant shock at all. That’s why I prefer to wait for a little bit rain to plant anything actually.
The eggplant in the picture is what I call “French Guy”. I named it from the French gardener who left his garden with this type of eggplant and I gathered the mature eggplant and planted the seeds. I have to admit I was happy for my success in growing the eggplant, I even gave away some transplants for my garden friends.
