Default Small backyard winter setup

These did well through very cold weather (for N. Va.)--we had temps in the low teens and singles. We also had snow. The real payoff for this is in late Feb and Mar, when everything goes nuts with the longer days and warmer temps.

Tomato seedlings go out if the day temps are above 50. I take them in if night temps will be below 45. I heat up the greenhouse in the am with a couple of jugs of very hot water a few hours before the seedlings go in.
