Those don't look like 7 gallon pots unless they are much taller than they look. That said, with autoflowers all you need is 3 gallons from my previous research.
They are 7 Gs
Myphone camera perspective is way fucked...I think I might have it on some fisheye or other odd ratio

First the Bed got turned and fertilized
Then I transplanted some thriving sweet pea starts under a piece of vertical sheep panel(out of view) at the far edge of that bed.

Lady transplanted some kale and various lettuce and greens that were growing in random beds in the garden. IView attachment 159061
Later some pole beans or other beans will climb the 8 foot panel behind the bed after the sweet peas give up. Probably just grow greens in the empty spaces in the bed this year.
Are those deep red/purple ones solar flare? They are really deep in color like the merlot variety, but looke shorter in stature like solar flare. I like that your wife chose varieties with different texture. Mixed green salad, or even toppings on sangwiches or tacos are always better with various textures. I don't always grow tango since it's short and gets shaded out by most lettuces, but when I do it really adds something nice to a salad.

Yes
As I said this is experimental only

I have no idea really, I do enjoy a nice salad
she is always seeding a bed to see what grows
purple leaves could be because of the frost/cold? or the variety you speak of, she has hundreds of seed packets

No, not with lettuce. It's not like marijuana. The variety is green, blush, or red, or anything in between. Seasons don't matter. Solar flare is a variety. I bought it a few years ago from Baker's Creek. Yours looks the same.
