Organic Indoor Salad Greens: End of Week 6

Organic Indoor Eros Escarole

   What a wonderful sight! I cannot hold a smile back when I see anything growing in a garden. Salad Greens are no exception, to me certain leafy greens just grow incredibly beautifully. My Organic Eros Escarole, in the picture above, took on a whole new journey. Some of the leaves as you can see started drying up, so I gave the plant a little extra manure. After doing that, it seemed to have gotten back into the healthy growing spirit. As you can see in the middle of the plant, the new leaves that are sprouting are growing at an amazing rate. This growth seemed to have happened over a series of three nights. Which I am totally grateful for!

Organic Indoor Gourmet European Mesclun Salad Mix

   After already using the "cut and come again" technique all of my salad greens seem to reproducing quite well. These Gourmet Mesclun Greens are thriving off of just compost, manure and water. Nothing special is needed to grow a full pot of salad greens, especially since these greens are fully mature under a month. I cannot stress how easy and how rewarding growing your own greens can be. I mean I seriously stopped buying salad greens from the market all together because of my indoor organic salad greens I am growing. After a while of constantly going to the market and buying fresh salad, only to have to throw away the last portion that usually ends up getting soggy from packaging it is in.

   There is no limit to what we can grow indoors, as long as you have the right equipment that is! Thanks again for following my grow-log, it means so much for me. Leave me a comment if you have any questions or inquiries. Until next time friends....

Organic Indoor Salad Greens: End of Week 5

Organic Indoor Eros Escarole

   One cannot describe how amazing it feels to know that I, with my own hands, have brought this plant to life from seed with the use of knowledge I have obtained through trial and error. This seed was extremely fast during the germination stage and had a steady growth rate throughout its life. This cultivar to me is a must grow salad green to accompany other leafy greens in whatever salad you decide to make. This growth is amazing considering this is one of the plants my cat decided to eat.

   Another one of the plants my cat thought belonged to him and his stomach. Yet look at the regrowth and how yummy these leafy greens look. I always grow this leafy salad green just because of the taste and how well this salad holds dressing whilst not getting soggy. This green I would say is about a third of the way to full maturity. Each head will be quite compact and wide. I am looking forward to sharing its full maturity with you fine folks, the pictures will be phenomenal!

Organic Indoor Gourmet European Mesclun Salad Mix

   These Gourmet European Mesclun Salad Mix leafy greens are about to mature in a day or so and be ready for my fiancee and I to have a little salad snack. These greens usually are done between twenty seven to thirty five days after germination. I will always regrow this cultivar of mesclun just because of the fact of continual harvest, which is extremely possible and highly recommended to do with the majority of mesclun cultivars.

   Another week, and more growth to show for it. I cannot wait to share a harvest video of salad greens with you fine folks. Which will come round soon enough! Thanks again for reading and following my posts, it means so much to me. Until next time friends....
