Not if you want to grow you own plants. Right now is the time seeds need to be planted to transfer to the garden this summer. I'm just tickled they are getting the seeds out earlier.
i could direct sow many vegies right now if i wanted here.
The most hateful voice I can muster.....i could direct sow many vegies right now if i wanted here.......
Retailers are pushing the seasons earlier and earlier,(walmart had easter candy out before Christmas here),where I work,the winter clothes have been on clearance for 3 weeks,Carhart and Berne coats,bibs abd coveralls are at 25% off,but in another week or 2 they will drop even more,and yep we have seeds in as well.
Rick is absolutely correct about getting seeds started,now is the time if you have the space.
I might also say that I plant lettuce, radishes and spinach on Valentine's Day. Even if snow is on the ground the seed gets scattered right on top. I've never had a crop fail. Ooh. Talking about gardening already. Makes you feel like winter is over. Cool.
LOL...I was standing there, looking at a pack of seed's, thinking "Huh...if they had these out any sooner, I could have had fresh red and green bell peppers, for Christmas ornaments.":innocent:

Seem that less turns out to be more, can take care of everything better, more harvests per plant.
Used to start 36 flats of 48 plants each.
Was costing me $30 bucks a month for the electric, and ended up giving a lot of plants away.
I still look forward to the catalogs every year, though.
There shouldnt be any problem busting through the frost line with one of these.
i know i brag a bit when it comes to my gardening climate, but don't forget, i envy most of you your winters as well.

We need one of those to get thru the clay around here.Quote:

First garden here was potting soil layed out over seed laying flat on the clay.
My seeds came in the mail yesterday and today. Almost time to set up the lamp for the early starts. Most stuff gets started in the cold frame later though. The peas go out as soon as I can get an inch of soil thawed (black plastic works wonders) but that's at least 2 months away.
I was just sitting out in the back room staring wistfully over the snow-covered backyard, feeling trapped. Then happened to think, look at all that flat space over there on top of the leach field... Does anyone know if it's a really bad idea to put raised beds on top of a leach field?
Take a read through this.

Thanks Rick. I sorta expected it wasn't a good idea when I thought about the watering aspect, though I had considered using closed-drainage beds. That article points out several other things I hadn't really thought through though, evaporation being one of them.
