Subject: Lettuce
Hello Keith,
I hope you started well in 2018! We are doing ok and learning more and more while becoming better at what we
are doing. Sometimes it is not easy to find the right balance between things we are doing. Like shade makes it
cooler for the plants but takes away sunlight. Here some more examples:
New varieties & known crops, Reproducible & Technology & Finances, Rain & Cover, Heat & Shade & Light
239. We have a question about lettuce. We are following
very closely what you say in your presentation about
lettuce. 1 week block (under transparent roof), 3 weeks
cup & 4 weeks plot. All under shade. Also we closely
follow your mix for soil in blocks, cups and plot.
Attached a picture (not the 10x1m plot but we have a
small area for trials). They are big but still leggy. From
what we researched out here some possible causes: no
wind, too much heat, to little sun, no much nitrogen, dry
soil. I know sun & heat are tricky because shade makes
it cooler but also takes sun away and the temperatures
here are hot. Our soil blocks are a little hard, but always
moist.
From your experience what do you recommend? Much
of the research gives tips for growing lettuce in US or
Europe but is not very helpful here.
Make it count!
Daniel and Love

Are you using 40% shade from HOOBEE or
fishing net?
The Englishmen I learned commercial lettuce
production from on cloudy days would pull off
shade to the side but don’t forget to return it if
the sun comes scorching out!!
241. Thank you!
we will try this. We have around 70% shade and trees on one side so there is shade the
whole afternoon. Will try with less shade and also uncover sometimes.
We have already 50+ different crops and are generating enough sales to pay the students
who are working on the project and also pay so materials we need for planting. Maybe 80%
what we learned we are applying and have many people now attracted to this project. You
are totally right that a demo farm is nonsense, we must farm for profit and people
will start asking about how we do it.
Thanks again!

Keith: Great to find the problem! Switch to 40% mornings, then remove when tree
shade comes in afternoon!
Thanks for the pics and progress!
