Feeling Better Now

Yesterday, the tomato seedlings started comnig up, making me feel
better about the gardening year to come. As of this morning, 11
of the 18 pots have seedlings up.
Time to sort through the seed packets and see what else is ready
to go. And I need to pick a place in the garden for the first
planting of peas (hopefuly Saturday).
Today I built a "mini-greenhouse" onto the southeast facing wall of my
house , and moved all of my seedlings out there . Most of my stuff was
planted on 1/24 , and some of the tomatoes are almost 8" tall ... last frost
is almost a month away . I think I might have planted a bit earlier than I
needed to , but better that than have puny weak plants when the time comes .
I also moved the outside probe of my indoor-outdoor thermometer into the
greenhouse so I can monitor overnight temps . I might have to put some heat
out there if we get another cold snap , I have way too much time invested to
lose it all now .
