Were the round ones grown in peat pots/loo rolls? That's the only time I've had them like that

Mine were just the same, I had put it down to being a late sowing. Anyone remember whose seeds they used?
Why plant rows of 24 lettuces??

They probably hit a hard spot in the soil or a stone

Dug the last of my Tender but true up - they were germinated in loo rolls.
Was an interesting harvest  :o
Thats a 2p coin in the pic for scale, so reckon that's a goose egg...?

Better than mine.  Mine were like forked lightning.  Anyway they all look the same mashed on the plate.
