How do I harvest this stuff? Peel off the leaves or just cut it to the ground?

Hi, MJ. Add my vote to the others: cut the outer leaves and the plant
will keep producing.

I don't harvest the entire head of leaf lettuce until it's nearing the
end of its season as it grows hotter.

That's when I let mine go to seed and then harvest the seed heads for
planting next year or strewing round the garden hoping some will self
seed - they usually do and some in some very strange places.
