| What can be done to lettuce plants after I have let them become leggy? Some have fallen over completly others are tall but standing. I pulled the ones that had fallen over and thinned them. If I take them out to the garden will they be okay? |

| They will probably be fine once they develop more leave4s. Or sow them again, they grow really fast anyway :) |

| Harvest the lettuce and let it grow back. What kind of light are you using? Often plants become leggy when the light source isn't strong enough. |

| Or when the plants are too far away from the light. Seedlings should be within a couple of inches of fluorescent bulbs. |
