Frost!

Killing frost last night. Our last frost date around here is April 8, but of course I tried to sneak some stuff in early.

Potatoes are frozen and will all die back. Tomato plants were mostly frozen. One might live. Don't know about the cabbage yet. It's just now gotten it's true leaves. Might be some survives.

Frustrating gardening time. In fits and starts.

Ack! I'm so very sorry! We had a bit of below freezing weather but it looks like the snow peas, carrots, radishes, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, onions, chard, kale, arugula, spinach and romaine survived it. I'm hoping that we're beyond last frost here because I'm planning on direct sowing some of my other seeds this weekend. The mini-greenhouse plants are going to stay inside for a few more weeks.
