I'm going to plant several kinds of lettuce in about a week, here in
central Illinois. I think you'd get a crop if you planted now, as

Lettuce is very frost-hardy. Last spring, my lettuce
survived temperatures of 16F. It was in pots too, it didn't
even have the protection of its roots being in the ground.
