Put up the swimming pool floats and get out the thermal underwear.

My pear tree just finished blooming :-(


Okra and green beans partially destroyed. Some survived. Planted just west
of some juniper trees. Temps just before the sun came over the trees is
what did it. No direct sun radiation in the early sunrise hours.

A 100 ft further west is another garden plot. Very little morning shade
from trees. Lettuce, spinach, and tomatoes did not suffer here.

All are seedlings 3 weeks young. Live just west of Wimberley area.


Doof.

No plants outdoors until the first of April!
There is nearly always a freeze in March!

I'll start planting the first part of next month.
