I live in a totally different climate and it's silly for me to reply.
Here I go anyway.
I suspect you have done a good thing. It takes a little while for
potatoes to get above ground. Once they do, they might freeze, but there
will be more sprouts that can grow later if needed.
Everything that you planted can survive a little frost and grows best in
cool weather. If you are going to grow these things, an early start is
worth a try, and might be the only way to go.

Steve in the Adirondacks where we got above zero today for the first
time since Wednesday.

Hi, I'm in the Tucson, AZ, area and today, 01/11/04 I planted
potatoes. Anybody have experience planting so early? We have frost
once in a while, but a deep, extended frost is quite rare. I mulched
heavily with straw!

Also planted beets, spinach, lettuce and sweet peas.

Daring I am, I might say!
