Lettuce Update - Eating Bolting Lettuce Going to Seed. Growing Tips.

Tips, Tricks

1. If my romaine has bolted (unusually hot summer) and I cut it down, will it regrow as healthy sweet lettuce or should I pull out of the ground and start fresh?
2. I've been watching the earlier videos just to see more background. I have to say, these are really good videos. 
3. What about getting rid of earwigs and caterpillars naturally? Do you have any videos on getting rid of pests? Thanks for your videos. 
4. My romaine bolted so I left the biggest strongest looking plant go completely to seed. I harevest the seeds (hundreds of them) and replanted those seeds the following season. Great success with very nice plants which seemed to do better than the first plants. PS thanks for the tip on juicing the bolts.
5. You can replant spinach and lettuce whenever you would like. IF it will grow well is another question. Depends on your local climate conditions. In the pacific northwest, where it doesnt get too hot, they might do well. I personally grow spinach and lettuce in the spring/winter/fall but not the summer.
6. I'm doing the mesclun variety so I can pull the outer leaves too--but I heard lettuce was actually LOW maintenance. U just have 2keep little (but important) things in mind, such as: I heard that they prefer cooler temperatures (so it's good to start early), and that they prefer shade (which could be why they flourished better under the fig tree than out in the open), & as u mentioned, planting 2close or 2deep are a no-no too. I'm gonna roll with the succession idea too (fingers crossed).
