Hi all!
Due to the large amounts of rain we've been having as well as the
thunderstorms that cruised through last week - I have not set out my
seedlings yet - I planned to last weekend and have been sidelined with
respiratory infection. But I am growing concerned because the seedlings are
at the "true two" stage and I don't want them to start running before they
hit the lovely plot prepared for them.
Have you already set out you plants - and is anyone seeing adverse reactions
in their plants due to the cold temps, wet and windy conditions? I can cold
frame them if they go out - and I think they'll have to this weekend
providing I quit the cough.. hack...spew thing. I was curious about how the
rest of you are faring. I'm in Brentwood, NH - 14 miles from the coast.
E-mail privately if you wish. Hope everyone is having a good start to their
season!

I will take plant measurements today and do an update tonight.
