yes, but it depends which varieties you have sown, whether they will put on much growth between now and spring, or just bide their time and wait for warmer weather ;)

It's important to open windows at every possible opportunity or they get mildew :(

I have a few varieties growing in pots in my greenhouse at the moment and must say they are doing really well.... Lollo Rossa, Cos, Red Salad Bowl and I think there is a Little Gem in there somewhere too  :D

My summer sown lollo rossa are doing fine and supplying plenty of leaves for sandwiches. The AYR i sowed a month or so ago are looking pathetic.

Keep the air circulating as mum says. I had a bit of bother with mildew but I lifted the affected plants and things are OK now. My greenhouse is open all day but closed at night and will be until we get really cold weather.
