I woke up to 33 reading in the closed greenhouse. Yikes, I have plants in there to keep them out of the frost! Probably not doing them much good.
I have a class on fermentation at Country Garden's Farm this morning. Miranda siad she wanted to help in the gardehn so she is going to help me plant garlic today. Rather than struggle with the washed out rows, I will use the row I had prepared for onions for the garlic.
The onion sets are in and I will pick them up at the class. So I will try and get another row prepared for them. I am going to try laying straw mulch first and planting the onions through the mulch in hopes it will be faster than putting the straw around the tiny onions.
Yesterday David picked some lettuce so I had to lift the row cover. As I was putting it back down, Shockley made a bee line for me and ripped right through the fabric. I was not happy. I just put a second layer over the tear for now but I may use the heavier fabric to make a second cover which will give it better winter protection.
I also planted some more seeds. Radishes this time.
