Jump starting 2017 with seeds
To start Or Not To Start ?
That is not really the question but the question is : WHEN ?t Well , I am getting very itchy right now. But it was 18F just last night and the way I understand it, the oldman winter will be around w/us for quite some time, no less than 2 months. But we have the statistical data to the help.. My LFD will will around April 6 ( take or give couple of days ). But that is just a ball park number. We can use 15 days forecast and make the move accordingly . So I will start my seeds such that it will give me a 15 days window of flexibility. So here I come, Jan 15 the peppers get sown and come Feb 1st the tomato seeds will go in the cells. And that is my FINAL answer. So what are your plans fo 2017 germination ?
