@richrollgardener Thanks. 1st greenhouse. 3 seasons and still go in it when empty. Couldn't travel for covid so we built that for an anniversary. Tried to make it versatile with fold down shelves, holes in center of rafters, and rods along sides for hanging. Turned out convenient, after trying twine and t-posts, ended up chaining up cattle panels for the tomatoes.

@richrollgardener I have basement space w/heat mats and fan and still I risk damp rot or drying out. Temperate here so I can put out most by mid-March but some just don't grow and then I have to fight off late snails and birds and keep fingers crossed there is not late frost or rain. Better: I have fold down shelves in the greenhouse and still... late frost or too hot during the day. Nothing is better than nature.

Seeds are here, this year I am not going to start early. Seedlings just don't grow until days are bright and warm. Prefer to stay inside on these frosty or rainy days, watch the birds through the windows and the garden at rest, and break out the worksheet and plan what this year's vegetable rotation will look like.

Waiting for a few items from Burpee. Botanical Interests, Renee's and Territorial have arrived. #Vegetables: beet-gold broccoli carrot chard collard leek lettuces onion-spring pea squashes tomato. I'm not growing as many varieties this year. Looking forward to seeds from the 'naked bear'.

#Flowers: amaranth foxglove larkspur snapdragon sweetpea yarrow zinnia. A few for pollinators, mostly fillers for bouquets and sweet pea for gifting.
