Andy writes: Well, I have a lot of bolting lettuce here in North Texas.. It is hot, and the lettuce plants are about 2 feet high and look like little green Xmas trees..... They look so nice that I don't want to cut them down.
In fact, I am considering using them in the front of the house next
year as decorative landscaping. i don't know how long they will look this nice, so I am experimenting this summer...
Anyway, on to my question :
Can I harvest seeds from the bolting lettuce to use next year ? I know that the answer is simple, but some of you must have done it already and can tell me what to do...... Where are the seeds formed and how should I harvest them...?
Thanks for any advice on this.
