The sluggish plants outside got their first day over 70 degrees, forecasted to be followed by a high of 58 tomorrow. The lows have been in the upper 30’s for the last week or two, which is encouraging, but not exactly balmy. We planted more seeds outside today — the ones that I had scheduled for my 3 week past mythical frost free date (cauliflower, red onions, green garlic, alyssum and some additional spinach, lettuce and peas). We are waiting on moving out the indoor seedlings because we haven’t started acclimating them to the colder outdoor temperatures. The tomatoes are rapidly outgrowing the space under the hydra lamp, and next to the window for that matter. They (along with the alyssum) are also starting on flower buds, which isn’t quite what we’d like just yet.
