I’m thinking that the cold frames would help warm the soil better.

But I’m talking about starting in late April or early May. The soil is generally warm enough at that point, it’s the late frosts and freezes that are the problem.

It doesn’t sound too early for some, but would give us a month on the growing season.

I’ve planted tomatoes in NC in February using the soda bottles.
