Oakleaf lettuce
Floating Raft SystemOakleaf lettuce are an open leaf type which are just great to grow and eat. I have grown this lettuce out in my Aquaponics floating raft system, so when it is harvested it comes roots and all. This is good because I can take the lettuce up to the house and if I stand the lettuce in a bowl with the roots in water, the lettuce will remain fresh for about 10 days.
In fact it will continue to grow.....The water it is standing in needs to be changed daily.
Living lettuce !!!

This method allows me to take leaves from around the outside as required, for individual salads. There is no waste whatsoever making this style of lettuce and the growing method very economical and convenient.

Cannot be fresher than that.
