“...meaning that the planting season could be shorter by about 2 weeks in the spring and 2 weeks in the fall.”
You can do a lot to extend your growing season with plastic sheeting and some hog panels. We all best git bizzy! ;)
I’ve just been buying seeds and Jiffy Pots for starts in another TWO MONTHS!
I am sprouting like crazy, and we are still eating Spaghetti and Butternut Squash from last season, and I started another flat of micro greens for cutting...I got 3 cuttings from the last batch, so that’s all good!
It was 63 degrees today here on The Tundra, so I spent most of the afternoon outside filling up the trailer with limbs, and branches from the dead Cottonwood tree that Beau cut down earlier this winter. I picked up anything that was big enough to give my mower ‘issues’ come Spring. Two trips to the burn pile so far - another in the morning.
It was LOVELY to be out in sunshine and warm weather, today in February! I really don’t care about the changes in weather patterns - in The Grand Scheme Of Things, I won’t be here long enough for it to matter, really. ;)
Well, I just like to look ahead to the next season too. Still in light of all the Globull warming, I thought it was interesting that the contrary is what is actually going on.
Maybe we all need to have a bigger carbon footprint to offset the cooling? LOL
Can you use regular seeds for the microgreens? What are your top 2 favorites to use?
