I am so wanting to plant things in zone 5b where temps. Premature plantation anyone?
Have ranged from 80 to 32 this past week.
so I need some experienced gardeners to weigh in and tell me what I can still plant (in containers) from seed and what I need to buy as plants
And the biggest question (besides the fact that I need a fenced garden area to be able to enjoy the first tomato much less any melons) is whether or not the old "don’t you dare plant before Easter" is still the "rule".
"It's a slow fade...when you give yourself away" so don't do it!
