I've lost them all...

ACEHearts · May 2, 2006

All my peppers, all my eggplant seedlings, with 3 exceptions, one yellow bell, one pepperocini and one black beauty eggplant.

I had built a coldframe out of scrap lumber and plastic I had here. It looked good, seemed like it should be successfull... forcast was for no lower than 3C. I guess the plastic wasn't thick enough, the temp got down to freezing and that, my friends, was that. They're gone.

*sigh*... too late to start fresh again with our short growing season, so now I'm trying to see if anyone else has seedlings in the area and as a last resort I'll go to the garden center.

At least my tomatoes are all still ok, and growing well in the basement!
