Hi Karen, nope, I've never been to Cactus Joes but with a birthday celebration this weekend in Summerlin, perhaps I can find a few minutes to swing by. It sure sounds like an incredible place to visit. Thank you for the recommendation!
Hi Linda! Yes, I do have a heat mat that I received over Christmas. My grow light was expected yesterday but it seems to be delayed. I'm probably a bit late getting tomatoes started. Although, after this cold spell, I might find my whole garden will need to be planted. Not sure if the cabbage and broccoli will survive these cold nights. I do expect the beets, carrots and onion to hold their own. Nevertheless, there should be plenty of time to get a head start on my spring and summer transplants.
Stay dirty, my friends.
