Yes, these spring storms are something. But the heat and rain in the last few days have really made the wintersown babies put on some growth at last. Our March was warm, and lots of stuff sprouted. But they didn't seem to put on much growth during the cold April. Now that the warmth is back, the growth has resumed. My tomatoes are still tiny, but they've definitely grown taller in the past few days.
It seems the roots do continue to grow in cold weather, but it takes some heat for above-ground growth to be apparent.
Unfortunately, the weather has also made the next round of weeds sprout in the flower beds.
