The Progress of Our Hanging Salad Bowls


They're looking good! I think I'll wait one more week to maybe 10 days before beginning to pluck off some salad fixings. The two bonuses with using these baskets for salad greens is, one, pests can't get to them (no slugs or bunnies), and two, because they hang up near the roof's edge, they catch more sunlight than other parts of our deck and seem to be growing faster in this cool spring weather than pots down below (and much, much faster than in the garden).

As the weather warms, I'll start some seeds for heat-tolerant greens to replace these cool season ones. 

I have five hanging baskets just like this, plus several additional pots with a variety of salad greens. I can hardly wait for salad season to begin!
