We've been eating fresh lettuce for a couple of weeks. It grew very fast against the southeast wall in a thingamajig you could call a cold frame - see photo below.
It's an old worm bin enclosed on two sides with school bus windows. I made a lid, a frame with row cover attached, for insulation and to keep out sparrows.

This juicy Bok Choi has been growing under a row cover tunnel since May 7. I bought the transplants at Rona, a 6-pack for $3. The Swiss Chard is also ready for picking and the Brussels Sprouts are growing well. Last fall, I mulched the bed with straw, which preserves moisture and protects the plants on cold nights.
