My lettuce has this discoloration on the leaves. Not sure what it is. Fungal? Got too cold at night? (It dipped below 50 for a couple hours recently). Going to clean out my planter soon and wondering if should harvest or toss.

    Lettuce likes cooler temps. Looks almost like early sunscald to me.

    Looks kinda like damage from thrips, a type of insect. It’s fine, and entirely edible. You can ignore thrips unless they are doing severe damage. 

    Food grown in your garden is often going to have minor discolorations and blemishes.
