For those of us in the Midwest/Upper Midwest (we had a little bit of short-lived snow this morning) it should be noted that lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage etc. are all cool weather plants that do well in this climate.

Don’t bother with most vegetables, annuals or perennials at this time unless you are willing to do all the homework, moving and temperature work and so forth for a few weeks if you are zones 5-7.

BTW, I work in one of the largest greenhouses in the country so I see a lot of the inside stuff.

Interesting! I worked ‘in the biz’ for 18 years before retiring.

Please feel free to add whatever ‘insider baseball’ tips and tricks that you want to each week; we’d love to read them!
