Winter Sowing Status Report #6

The weather has really been throwing me off this spring. As I said in my last status report, I feel like I'm way behind on my sowing. So, I went nuts again this week and sowed most of my warm weather vegetables and annuals.

Winter sown containers

That's 27 more containers for me, making my total 133. Whew, almost done.

I ran out of containers, so I started planting out the cold weather vegetables in the greenhouse in order to reuse those containers. Wow, I can't believe I'm planting stuff in March!! I love my greenhouse!

Most of the containers from my first few rounds of winter sowing are sprouting. Actually, some of the ones I sowed in the last few weeks are sprouting already. It's amazing how fast some seeds will sprout in perfect conditions.

I have 50 more containers sprouting since my last status report! I won't list them all out, here's a summary...

• All the cold weather crops (kohlrabi, cauliflower, broccoli, etc)
