This is really informative! I didn't know there are that many varieties of salad greens. I want to try growing some too. With your help, it seems possible to do, so might as well try it. Thanks!

In reply to Bev. You're welcome! You can actually refresh many vegetables like this. Carrots or celery sticks that have dried out in the fridge and become floppy can be refreshed by setting in cold water as well. It will crips them up, but they should be eaten soon after as they will only dry out if left in the fridge again.

In reply to Kelly Rectors. Hey Kelly, In theory, yes you could grow lettuce year-round in Southern California. That said it may get too hot in the middle of the summer. I would suggest looking for varieties that are heat tolerant to take advantage of the heat you get down there.
