weather

I don't have any pictures today. We've had freezing sleet and snow. After shoveling the drive and paths out front, I cleared snow and ice off the row cover- it had collapsed a bit but I propped it up with sticks inside, where the plants are still looking just fine. Knocked a thin film of ice off the roof of the mini greenhouse, though it probably wasn't neccessary. It's currently 28° outside, and my greenhouse temperature reads 35°. Too cold to set the baby plants out there- I now have leek seedlings among them! - so they are on windowsills or shelves by windows, and get rotated when they start to lean for the light. Tomorrow will get up to 40° during the day so most of all of the baby plants should be able to spend time in the greenhouse.
