Spring is on it's way!

February 09
With the WINTER WEATHER trying to hang on ... some signs of Spring are showing up here, as the seedlings inside are growing. It's currently 34°F and it is supposed to be warm over the next couple of days. Our new window "SUN BOX" is working out well and we have many plants getting warmed by the Winter sun and lots of light from the reflective snow. February and March are the two best months to capture the most amount of "reflective sunlight" from our Southern exposure ... partially due to the vast amount of snow accumulation during the period. The white stuff sure is piling up here, but has not stopped us from planting. We have plants in our "SUN BOX" that are already 1-2 inches tall. The reflective sunlight is enough that we have not used any indoor artificial growing lights at this point. Here's the current list:

1 Tomatillo Tomato
14 Super Marmande Tomato
7 Pink Hyacinths
8 Claudia Tulips
We also have a window box with Gladiolas, Tulips and Crocus bulbs that are up about 3inches and growing great!

Winter may be here for another month or two, but we are ready for Spring ...time to do more planting!
