With the weather getting better, Zack and I have been getting outside, pulling weeds and getting the garden ready to plant some greens that can withstand the colder nights, but would do well under cover during the warmer days.  Our seedlings are continuing to grow at such a rapid pace that we are going to have to transplant some of them into bigger pots by next week. We will have to get busy cleaning out the pots we used from last year and re-plant most of the cucumbers and a couple of the tomatoes. The cukes have almost doubled in size and are now measuring 21+cm and the tomatoes have as well, measuring 9+cm.  We were super excited to see that our second batch of sweet pepper seeds have sprouted. I didn’t think they were going to. Some of them are just poking through the soil and others are as tall as 2.5cm. I think the recent increase in temperature and burst of bright sunshine were all the encouragement that the pepper seeds needed.  When we transplant the bigger plants from their current pots, we will replace them with basil and cilantro seeds so we will have some great edible companion plants to keep pests away and encourage lots of juicy tomatoes, crunchy cukes and sweet peppers. We might even put a couple of test plants out in the greenhouse under the cover of a regular milk jug which has had the bottom cut off. It essentially acts like a mini greenhouse inside the greenhouse, which still might be too chilly for these types of plants.. With the forecast looking fairly good for the next little bit, we look at trying this this weekend.
