This is Southern California. I actually start to get a little bummed around this time of year because the lettuce starts to die and I don’t like that. I found my dark purple butter lettuce dead this morning. I think I would like to have a garden where it’s cooler a little longer.

You’re bummed about the springtime sun? Wish we had as much. Have you tried a shade cloth? Also … I wonder if darker leaves don’t like so much sun … maybe lighter lettuce would do better for you?

I know I know! I sound bratty. The sun here just gets so intense. I’m not ready for it yet. I would like to see more rain or at least more seasons.

I spoke too soon - June gloom seems to be coming early!
