I know! We went from the 50’s down to the 20’s with wind chills of 15 BELOW. It’s very sunny, but very cold today.

I started lettuces, radishes and spinach to grow on the cool porch under lights. I won’t start tomatoes and peppers and other stuff for another week yet.

I can’t wait! :)

Couple of questions, m'dear:

What do you start the lettuce, radish, and spinach in? and do you then transplant them or keep them in the container you started them in?

Now, a greenhouse question (or 2 or 3). Mine is finally finished and I moved all of my stuff in there and filled a bunch of starter cells with growing mix. In the past, when doing them in the house, I've always covered the trays with plastic wrap, do I need to do the same in the greenhouse?
