Yeah actually I mixed up the dates... I started most of my garden indoors on march 15th, iceburg lettuce included...
I moved everything outside a week or 2 into april... at that point the lettuce was only a stem with some leaves coming out of it, maybe 2-3 inches long... I sprinkled the seeds ontop of the little fiber cups(2 rows of 5 in each planter) Should I maybe only put 1 or 2 seeds per cup? they are like an inch and half by inch and half... I sprinkled the seeds, and basically the whole cup was full of these little shoots

I plant my lettuces in feburary even if I have to go move the snow to do so. They love the cold start.

This is my first year gardening...
I started 3 raised beds, everything is going great so far, ate a lot of sugar snap peas and strawberries already... with corn a few weeks away, same with green peppers... mustard greens seem to be ready but I dont know alot about them... and carrots and sunflowers are doing awesome, watermelon as well...
My only problem is iceburg lettuce... It never formed heads at all, and is now shooting up and starting to bolt(I think thats the right term)... I moved everything outside may 15th in PA... anyone who has grown iceburg before could give me some tips?
To add as a second thought... I also have to empty 2 dehumidifiers from the basement every day, and this water I use to water my gardenedit on 9-7-2011 by morder1 because: (no reason given)
