lettuce seed germination

[wise at VAXA.CIS.UWOSH.EDU]

Dear Plant Edders,

        I am hoping to do the classic lettuce seed germination experiment
in plant phys lab next week.  The standard procedure is to use the Grand
Rapids variety.  However, all I can get locally and quickly are Romaine and
Summertime.  Does anyone know if these latter two varieties will work?

TIA

Bob
