Chillin' In The Garden
This is the first time I've started tomatoes so can't help you out there.swampducks said:I have not planted any lettuce yet, but I really need to get the rest of that garden weeded, raked and planted with lettuce. Do you know, can it survive hard freezes because it seems to drop to 28 every other night here. This would be early for me to plant it outside simply because there is no snow and the ground as thawed! It's as though I have to rethink everything this year so nothing is second nature! I actually planted 10 potato chunks today, around here the potato farmers usually wait till May 1. At least according to my FIL.
But my chicks arrived today so I'm sort of staying inside watching them. Plus it's really windy out there, only 50 degrees yet it feels about 38! Sunny though which is nice.
My tomatoes in the basement are finally getting their first set of true leaves, I may be able to plant some to bigger pots in another week or so. They seem to be growing so slowly, or am I just over anxious? Been a few years since I've started my own.![]()

My chicks are are 6 and 7 weeks old now. I love watching them. They finally come up to me when they hear my voice. ALL 47 of them

Have fun getting to know yours.
