Don't Let Your Greens Get Too Dry, Otherwise The Lettuce Becomes Bitter To The Taste

Greens grow best in full morning sun, not hot afternoon sun. Water regularly, because if plants become too dry, the lettuce will be bitter to the taste.

Note: *Be sure to feed with E.B. Stone Organic Tomato & Vegetable Food and water regularly throughout the growing season
