The message cL_%b.669$sh4.554@newsfe1-win
from "Dan Keeley" contains these words:

I've got some well chitted first earlies, wanted to plant this weekend, but
is it wise with the frozen ground? should I wait? or wont it matter?


I presume they must be resistant to frost anyway which is why i was thinking
it'd be ok to just plant them?? Wrong?


Sorry. Wrong.

Plant them (traditionally) on Good Friday - depending on where in the
country you are.


but Good Friday is a movable feast. I think you'll have to do better
than that.
