I made a monotub for my lettuce * 7
    #28560084 - 11/28/23 08:36 PM (1 month, 29 days ago)

So a while back I got fucking tired of my lettuce getting wet rot.  The stupid containers it comes in are not acceptable. And the stupid crisper drawer? More like rotter drawer.  Id already been putting my vegetables in myco jars with great success.  Keeps em neither too wet nor too dry.

So I made a mono for my lettuce and in a side by side comparison with the same lettuce with the same expiration date, its lasted way longer. So far a full five days longer.  Its always the arugala and the red lettuce that gets wet-rot and turns to slime. The stuff in the mono is neither too wer nor too dry--just as pasty intended. 

That is all.

Necessity is the mother of all invention, good job Beef. My GF just bought 8 bunches of romaine from Costco, used 1 for Thanksgiving and then left for who know how long. I see tracking down a tub in my near future.

this genuinely might be one of your best posts on this site. had to harvest some tubs but didn’t wanna run my dehydrator yet, realized i didn’t have any paper bags. i remembered you mentioning the lettuce monotub, so i decided to use some small tubs/containers i had for fruiting mushrooms. a fair amount of the mushrooms were from a week ago, & felt super firm like they were just harvested. no weird musty scents, no slight drying out, no crazy bruising. i think i’m gonna mod an old shoebox & make this my go to way of storing fruits before dehydration (alison with using it for lettuce & shit now lol). so kick ass dude. genius idea you had there beefy

Poor beef's dialing in his lettuce, meanwhile that shitty shredded iceberg from the restaurant depot could be used to insulate your walls and the house will wilt before the lettuce does.

Dafuq they doin' to that lettuce? Why does it come with free carrots?

You wake up. The room is spinning very gently round your head. Or at least it would be if you could see it which you can't.
It is pitch black.
