You are...Nice to see how things are going up there. You are not alone! The snow has gone away here for the most part but the cold morning just takes the fun out of working outside. I have not started seeds yet for the vegetable garden but will begin this week I guess. It is getting so expensive to heat the greenhouse as we just have electricity as a means right now so I am not going there! And my basement is full of Edible Blue Honeysuckle seedlings and lily seedlings right now. Do you get to grow squash? I have seeds of Mandan Banquet which I could send you. We have one in the basement and it is still firm and this is a great tasting squash.Claytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15291943650823889010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26348289.post-23655117667070234022011-04-18T07:52:56.622-07:002011-04-18T07:52:56.622-07:00Looks great!

I admire your restraint, holding off on planting veggies until now. I started in mid-March! I have three kinds of tomatoes sprouting, two peppers, cabbage, and some creeping phlox. Yesterday it was sunny outside, so I was moved to start gourds, squash, cukes, pansies, and poppies. Our little plant room is going to be completely taken over in a few weeks! *L* Worth it, though.<br /><br />Really enjoy your articles. Keep us posted on how things progress!DawsonDeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543096162332070135noreply@blogger.com
