Here's an updated coldframe plant pic. The first round of seeds were sown the last week of Dec and first week of Jan. This photo was taken yesterday - Feb 20th.

The greenies are growing slower than a spring or summer crop does, but they are filling in and out. The February sown seeds have sprouted and are growing steadily, too.

There's also baby clover growing in the coldframe soil - originating from the aged horse manure I amended the soil with before planting. I'm letting it grow for a while to provide soil nitrogen fixing.
