It is very windy where I live too, because I'm in a river canyon. I'm going to tie the bins to the heavy tables in the green house. I don't have much shade to speak of, and none in an area that the dogs can't get to, so I think I better wait on the tomatoes, until the end of next month at least. If I remember right, February was horrible here last year, with that arctic blast that the rest of the country got. But, that isn't normal, of course. It's really warm here for being so far north, but being this far north means that we also get cold air that comes down from Canada. We got down to 23 last night, but didn't freeze overnight for several days before that. I'm still not sure what normal is for my area, since I'm still pretty new here!
I've got lots of containers ready, so maybe I'll start some perennials now, and wait on the tomatoes. I looked at the tomato seeds last night, and only have 6 left. I don't want to lose any of them!
