Answer
Answered by Aaron Abadi1) No 2) No 3) Avoid the part directly near the lettuce. 4) for bugs? No! 5) If you eat only the areas that you were able to check, it's Ok. 6) The Berachah and the first Parsha of Shema, and I'm careful that if I speak a lot after I say the Parsha of Shema, that I repeat it again before I actually go to sleep. 7) Yes! Absolutely. 8) You wear for Amidah (Shemonah Esrei) what you would wear in the street. 9) Yes! 10) Look at this website, (myzmanim.com)it gives you an exact time for everywhere. It is ideal to pray the Amidah 2 minutes after the listed sunrise. If you cannot pray then, at least complete it by one third of the daylight hours. There are two ways to calculate daylight hours; one is from sunrise to sunset, and the second is from dawn to dark. These two calculations are given on the website mentioned. It is ideal to be Machmir and the earlier the better. Time of Tefilah takes preference to Tefila Betzibur. Aaron Abadi
