Hi. In my opinion not too early - ive been growing radish, lettuce and rocket in an unheated greenhouse since Feb (without the aid of a hot water bottle for them at night). All depends on the lettuce variety - which ones?

I sowed my spring onions outside about 4 weeks ago and they're going great guns now

thinning out lettuces, how and what do you do plse

If you have sown too many, so that the plants are too close together (and lettuces need about 4"-8" each) you will need to 'thin out' by removing the extras.
Personally, I hate thinning out, so I don't sow so many in the first place.
