Title: How Big?? Super lettuce
Post by: Tinkie_Bear on July 20, 2006, 07:28:33
I have just cut the most amazing Webs Wonder - so big it does not fit in a carrier bag!  I knew it was gonna be a too big for domestic use so I am taking it to my friend who runs a pub. 

My question is - is a lettuce weighing 2.2lbs something of a record? - this weight is without the outer leaves and roots of course!

I have taken some photo's but haven't worked out how to post them yet (any hints on that would also be appreciated)

Thanks

from the sublime to the ridiculous, you with the mumma of all lettuce, me with my 5oz baby little gem lettuce.  A perfect specimen of lettuce-hood there Tinkie.
