A very simple post. Two photos. First when I planted some lettuce starters on April 1. Second is a photo update on April 22.

An often asked question is when to plant out seedlings. A lot depends on what seedlings want to plant out, such as daytime temps in your garden which may or may not be ideal for the seedlings.
As I already written, I use old egg cartons for starter trays. For many starters. Lettuce does very well in egg cartons. And a week ago I started planting out my egg carton lettuce.
I consider Spring has really started when it is warm enough that I can put my Fuchsia outside.
October planted garlic, now under a low tunnel.
My update about my radish and peas during a very cold period in March which I knew was coming. In short, insulation works. See details in the rest of this post.
Grow lights: Getting quick to the point: They work well. I am impressed.
Last year, I lost a lot of my early garden planted seedlings due to a late March cold spell. Decimated my radish and peas.
Looks like we will have another late March cold snap this year as well.
