Lettuce from the Compost Pile

I spent a few minutes this morning turning over the compost piles.  While doing that I also pulled out all of the romaine lettuce root ends that were sprouting.  Removed ten pieces and left the remaining twelve in the compost pile to break down.

After using the wheat grass last month as decoration for a catering event I had an empty spot in one of the beds.  Decided to put the romaine in the empty spot and see if makes it through the winter.

Right now the leaves are about one inch long.  If the weather continues to stay warm I might be able to harvest some leaves by February.
