warm water to start seeds and water the flats I have started. I must run a

foot hose from the house useing water straight from the well, I would guess
the water temp. would be 58 F. Is this to cold to start tomatoes, marigolds
Lobelia,Vinca,Lychnis and a few other perennials?
Thanks in advance

I would store the water in a five gallon pale for a day before using the
water-some plants respond adversely to cold water-but f 58 is not too cold so
should be fine for most plants.
