| So this my first year with a garden so plz excuse my very limited knowledge. I planted Romaine lettuce seeds 2 weeks ago.. Obviously I have weeds growing here as well since there are all different looking things sprouting everywhere even though I weeded really well beforehand.. I planted them in a compost, gardening soil, peat moss mix on top of my regular garden soil. I am just trying to decipher which is the lettuce and which are weeds so I can pull out the weeds.. Also, it seems like it's taking a long time to sprout, the package said about a week to 10 days. Can anyone tell me what is the Romaine and what are the weeds in the attached picture? I also have the same issue with the spinach seeds I planted but it only lets me add one pic on here so I will do a separate post with that pic.. |

| Wait until they get a bit bigger and you should know for sure what's lettuce and what's weeds. Rodney |

| some are weeds, probably crab grass, and some are lettuce. for example, mapping the picture onto (0,1) in x and (0,1) in y, the group at (0.7,0.3) is mostly lettuce. the group at (0.2,0.8) is mostly crabgrass. you have crab grass in the spinach picture too, with very little spinach (not uncommon, spinach are slow germinators, specially in warm soil). |

| I see lots of probable lettuce, esp vs your other pic |
