Beware: Garage in Use


Moving the seedlings from the inside of the house to the farmer's porch and front steps was quickly becoming a nuisance. Instead, I have enlisted the use of the garage. The garage has far more floor space to handle the large number of trays. I have been opening up the garage door during the day and then closing it at night; I will not move these seedlings back into the house unless a freezing nighttime temperature is forecasted. On Thursday I will move them out onto the driveway to bask in filtered sunlight for an hour or two and gradually increasing the exposure to five or six hours by the weekend.  From there, they will go into the hoop house or raised beds, if ready.

Following are the pepper seeds that have germinated overnight:
