I�m not sure if you remember, but this time last year I was falling in love with growing herbs in my garden. �That love for gardening, the taste of fresh-picked greens, and the fulfillment from seeing something grow and prosper at my very fingertips has only doubled, as can be expected. �So this year, I set out to expand my home garden by learning how to plant an indoor lettuce cart. �
The idea of an�indoor lettuce cart struck a chord with me; I loved the thought of cultivating some of my most-used vegetables in the kitchen at home, and the wheeling the cart up to my counter whenever I wanted to use them. �And the fact that it�s INDOORS helps make it possible to enjoy homegrown greens all winter long. �I was in love with the idea of just with a little snip-snip-snip, having homegrown spinach in my salads, arugula on my flatbreads, cabbage in my slaw and broccoli on my plate! �
I did a little research, and after buying this super convenient salad garden on wheels, I set out to plant the already-sprouted varieties with fresh soil and fertilizer. �I visited my local nursery and bought already-growing vegetables: spinach, red leaf lettuce, cabbage and broccoli. �But you can, of course, grow the lettuce from seed and a seed starting mix�(one that�s gentle enough to grow the crops from seed).� �I really wanted to do arugula since it�s one of my all-time favorites, but sadly the nursery didn�t have it when I looked. And I know broccoli may be a little ambitious this time around, but I�m willing to give it a shot!�
You�ll find that lettuce is a very low maintenance vegetable to grow, but it does need a lot of sun. �One of my favorite things about this lettuce cart is that I can fit a lot of vegetable varieties on it, and since lettuce can grow pretty close together, I don�t run the risk of overcrowding the sprouted plants. �Since we may still get another frost here in the A before it�s truly springtime, it�s nice to have this cart that I can wheel in and out of my garage to get optimal sunlight.�
