“So I am wondering if maybe March could be a month long thread. Maybe a garden prep thread. That way there would be more posts. Just for March if you think it’s a good idea.”

I like that idea! I have a fun topic for next week, but then March could be a monthly for all of us kicking things off.

The first thing I start are my peppers and that’s usually the first weekend in March. I do have my grow light rack cleaned up and ready to go, though! I’ve moved it into my office where it’s warmer, versus the pantry/laundry room that has no heat. I’m hoping that will help with pepper germination, which is slow-going as it is.

After this ridiculously mild Winter, I’m still thinking we’ll get snowed in before it’s all over. I’m not sure our luck will hold until REA: Spring arrives. ;)

I usually start in April, as we don’t do grow lights. We are in west Michigan BTW. With a early spring I am itching to at least start some lettuce.
