GG posted a soup recipe last night. I’ll bet she’s coming into her busy season at her garden center. She’s always a number of months ahead of me, up here in ‘Da Great White Nort.’ :)
Glad to hear she’s still on FR. I bet she is busy, the garden centers here are getting ready for the spring garden season, which is only a few weeks away (thank God).
I have some tomato and bell pepper starts underway in the house. Last week I went to visit my brother in Knoxville and his neighbor had these little greenhouses, a four level wide racked shelf with a plastic zip up cover. He had beautiful Christmas cactuses growing in them. They are on wheels and you can wheel them inside when it is too cold out, then back out in warmer weather. I begged him to sell me one.
The weather here is crazy, we have 60 degree weather one day, then 15 the next. So these are perfect. Remember I told you we built a small greenhouse outside, but last year lost all my hanging flowers in there. The electric rates just went sky high here, and I can’t afford to heat it, plus can’t stand the thought of losing everything again. It is basically now a potting shed, but in April I may move everything in there.
Winter before last we had gorgeous weather, and everything outside budded. Then, in April we had about two days where it dropped in the teens.I’m going to try really hard not to get overanxious this year and plant too soon.
