The weather has turned here in North Alabama Had to bring out the C9 lights to protect my first planting of 400 tomatoes, the cabbage are happy it has been a little warm for them on black plastic mulch the last few days. Hopefully this will be the last cold spell for us.

-1 degree Fahrenheit here with the Montreal Express blowing at 25 mph. I won’t even plant my tomatoes (indoors of course) until April 22. I will set them out in the garden around June 1. Some years I can’t get them out until June 10 unless I put them under a row cover. Vermonters have a saying about this time of year. “As the days get longer, the cold gets stronger.” I look forward to reading the WEEKLY GARDEN THREAD.
