Have a great Easter. Right after Easter, about 28 tomato plants and 50-odd tobacco plants go in the ground and I can clear out a lot of square feet of my cold frame.

Interesting observation... The cilantro and cumin are taking FOREVER to sprout this year. Don't know why. Seed tested good when I did the germination test in January.

Moved wrong in the front flower bed this morning, not carrying weight or anything and am down in my back so that I wound up not getting to do anything else the whole day except take asprin and groan.

Tomorrow is another day. I hope it's as pretty as today.

My tomato plants are about 3 inches tall. I bought a $1..48 starter set from Lowes. They are inside under a grow lamp in Virginia.

If I didn’t have a heating pad to use in the mornings, I couldn’t make it out of bed. You have made good progress with your early starts.

This year I am going to try planting some of the lettuce and spinach in a bag of mushroom compost. I read that they love to grow in it. We’ll see.

Oh, drat! Hope you feel better soon. Have you ever tried ibuprofen as an antiinflammatory? For me, it works a lot better than aspirin for severe muscle pain.
