Re: June 1st, 2008 Bhaskaran Patch Update


Hi- I had a question- this is my first year and I started my seed indoors on
April 23rd and just planted her outdoors May 23rd with a dome cover  and
black plastic -the two days following proved to be temperature intolerant
and frost all over in my part of NY. Anyway, I have the reccommended feeding
schedule and was wondering if week one for me was the week of April 23rd or
does my first official week one start May 23rd? I wanted to start the
feeding schedule when I transplanted to outdoors- Is this correct?I guess I
really need to know if I am in  week one or week 5 of my anticipated  period
of stress, prayer and anxiety? Hope to hear from you soon,
Thanks and good luck to everyone
