Congrats Julia on getting your plants out. That's what I was working on yesterday too. Today I'm tired! Share some pictures if you can!

jwr - sesame plants? I'm so intrigued! Can you harvest a reasonable amount of seeds? I ate sesame leaves at a Korean restaurant recently, they were delicious!

Beefsteak, plants look great!

I put one plant out under a milk jug and surrounded by eight 2L soda bottles filled with water, and then covered them over night. A 41F low is predicted for 5/11. I've never put a plant out this early before. A little nervous, but it may become a tradition if I don't end up killing this little fellow. Lots of rain predicted over the next few weeks.
