I'd be interested in learning more about this. We grow/sell salad mix every week, but nothing close to a 100 pounds a week. I would love to see all the information posted here. I think we could all learn from it.

Right now we are simply waiting on seeing what new regs are going to come out this spring regarding fresh produce in Ohio.We are doing about 50# a week currently but have not scaled up to produce more because we are unclear about what we will be facing later this year.Currently our goal this year is to produce a varying salad mix from the end of April to the end of October with no gap in the summer. We normally have a break during the heat of summer but this year we think we have the interest in a more bitter mix (with denser greens like mizuna, kale, and turnip, chard, radish micros being a denser part of the mix rather than what I consider a flavor/texture booster.Richard StewartCarriage House FarmNorth Bend, OhioAn Ohio Century Farm Est. 1855On Mar 13, 2012, at 10:56 PM, John Ferree wrote:Hey_______________________________________________
Anyone have an interest in doing a comparison on salad mix production for 2012? Compare methods, varieties, yields, efficiency, processing. . .
I am imagining that this would be off list.
Looking for growers that have learned to manage for consistent weekly. =>100#+/wk would make for a good comparison.
Let me know if you're interested. . . and be prepared to do weekly cost accounting for each mix batch.
