Hmmm.....reading these recent posts have given me yet another reason to move back West. We're still recovering from a major ice storm; the major utilities have finally been restored and the roads cleared of downed trees; now it's up to the individuals to clean up their yards of broken or downed trees.
(This winter has been extremely harsh. Just in my block, I drive past 2 carports that were totally collapsed by the weight of last month's snow storm: one crushed the new car, but the other neighbor had wisely left for a visit with children in warmer climes!!)
I can't start my tomatoes until around March 1st, for a plant-out after the first week of May.
I've ordered and received all my tomato seeds and have started setting up a dedicated gro room, but I'm having to take it slow to help delay my sowing frustration.
I'm eagerly looking forward to March. . . . .
