Raised beds cleaned up, rototilled once. Have all the seeds ,cups have drain holes in, tape applied to cups to write names on. Tonight we will start about 60 seeds, have a list of seeds that need started every week till last frost date. With recent back surgery, I probably won't get to use the new to us greenhouse much this year

It was nice yesterday but getting gray and cold today. I have potatoes and peas planted and up. I have planted my tomatoes into tree pots but the weather isn't good enough yet to take in and out of the greenhouse. I did have to open the door to the greenhouse a couple days when it got into the low 60's the last couple days of February. I have cabbage and cauliflower starts transplanted under hoops. Pepper plants about ready to plant in their tree pots. I have lettuce and other greens planted in the floating beds of the fish tanks that I am taking fresh for salads. I have planted carrots in one hoop bed but they are slow to sprout, kohlrabi and swiss chard came up thick. The ones in the raised bed inside the greenhouse are up. I have a lot of fall garden plantings that I am just using the trimmings and thinnings so far. We don't plant garden here until Memorial day. I have planted some corn in the greenhouse, the seeds have sprouted but not up yet....James

We're doing our first ever raised bed garden this year. After clearing part of the woods in the front yard for another garage last year, we also built the frame/box for a large raised bed and began filling it in with dirt and organic material last fall. At this moment in time, northern Wisconsin has anywhere from one to two feet of snow on the ground, and due to drifting snow in that area, the raised bed is barely visible. But I can see it and know it's there. Due to the trees, shadows and shade, it'll be used for lettuces, chard and kale - things that are more tolerant of our lack of full sun. We're still working out the best fencing options to keep the gazillion deer out - dh says he has a plan, so we'll see.
Herbs, tomatoes and a few other things are grown in tubs on the deck. And those planters are on little wheeled platforms so I can move them around for maximum sun. Yes, I take my plants for a walk. We seriously do live in the woods. Again, due to our weather and climate zone, nothing's going on there at this time.

In South Louisiana, planted some tomato and pepper seedlings into outdoor containers. Hit 83 yesterday, mostly overcast. Maybe 8 to 10 days of warm weather and rain predicted. We'll see what happens!
