What did you do today?
I played with dirt!
Top soil, Container soil, and Peet Moss!
Getting ready, albeit a month and a half early, still I want to be ready! So excited to grow!
Also planted some Marigolds (white, dwarf bolero, and Champion)

Got down to 19 last night and up to 55 today, it's getting there, but I started way earlier than I should have because I found some old seeds (2020) I think and tried growing them, it worked for most of them! So then I am trying to keep them growing. I am using some clear plastic storage containers as mini greenhouses and sitting them in my windows. So far, so good!

Have the seeds sprouted yet? If they have sprouted no need for the mini-greenhouses if they are in your house... water daily.
I have planting on my mind too, use to start so many plants and grow under fluorescent lights until it was time for them to go outside. They did really well that way, now the cat would eat them!
Dream of someday having a year around greenhouse so I can pick fresh fruits and vegetables all winter long. Been eyeing up the year around greenhouses in Colorado and Wyoming, both technics work well for them but I'm in the cold north and may need a backup plan.

Another option... https://www.suncatchergree...
SunCatcher Passive Solar Greenhouses
The “Parkway” was our initial research facility; a 12′ x 24′ SunCatcher located in Boone, NC (ski country – cold!). It became the basic design for 100% solar heating. It was built about 2000 and is currently being used as a part of the Lettuce Learn Parkway Schoo..

I love the idea, there are also homes like this idea that are Solar Passive. However, for now I have to work with my budget.

Yeah, the budget thing is always a problem!!!
That's why I'm still dreaming at this point!
The base would have to go below the frost line here and be well insulated. Some of the greenhouses I've seen online in Colorado have big black barrels on the north side to absorb heat in the day and slowly release it at night. Some I've seen circulate the air underground to put the hot air in the daytime and pump that warmth back out at night. Not sure if either option would work for me... so this is what I dream-plan out on those nights I can't sleep!
But how wonderful it would be to pick fresh fruit and vegetables all year long!
