Latest developments


Last Friday we had our first harvest of lettuce. We picked a few of the larger leaves before moving the plants out into the new garden frame. In spite of the fact that the night time temperatures over the next three nights were forecast to be 30, 27, and 23, we transplanted:
(9) lettuce
(9) kale
(4) cabbage
(3) spinach
(3) chard

So far, everything has survived, including everything that was planted in the first frame (which has endured significant cold and snow). The picture above is of the second frame with the plants that were moved outside last Friday.
