Default Water Hyacinth blooming

We have never had any luck with lettuce. Hyacinth survive outside
(Jackson), if the groth center does not freeze. We put plastic
sheeting over the 4 x 8 pond with the hyacinth. Perhaps 50% die.and
those who survive lose some of the outside leaves. We have had some
hyacinth make it through the winter inside...with good light from a
window.
