I started in mid-November and have already had 5 harvests! The outrageous red and oak leaf letteuce have done the best. None of the black seeded Simpson survived. They’re all leggy because of the distance to my grow lights but one of these days I’ll get around to setting up a way to drop them down.

At this point, I’m getting about 1 cut and come again harvest per week from all 4 plants which is far more than I expected. Once the weather warms up, I’d like to chop them and start new seedlings for outside on the balcony. I have been averaging about 14-15kWh, or 2¢ per month in electricity costs.

    Awesome! My lettuce starts are all getting a bit leggy, too, but it’s hard to do anything about that since I’ve got all my starts in the same tray (the pak choi and broccolis are going off like gangbusters right now). Crazy you got so many harvests, though. You’re obviously doing something right. Keep on killin it!
