Coldframe for Lettuce

Or you can add a few ounces of manure to the water in the plastic jugs.
The manure dyes the water brown to absorb heat better and you will have
well aged manure tea in the spring for fertilizer. I grown lettuce and
cabbage all winter in temperatures down to 10F with no other protection
other then being surrounded by milk jugs. Inside a cold frame, you could
go much lower.
How big are those milk jugs?
