I've heard that certain vegetables can be preserved by sprinkling lemon juice on top of them. Your best bet is to cover the lettuce with an airtight seal, either through vacuumed plastic or some type of container, because oxidization is what turns veggies brown.
If you cut your lettuce with a plastic knife it wont spoil as easy as it does when you cut it with a metal knife
It does spoil, eventually. I hand rip the lettuce so that it wont turn brown right away.
