Hi,
I gathered all this info before, and now of course can't find it!
For those of you who WS vegies, can you give me some guidelines of when you WS the greens (lettuce, broc, kale, etc.)?
I'm wondering if I can sow them now. I know they do good in the cold, but will they take a deep freeze, which we still might get?

Peppers and tomatoes would have to be sown later, correct?

thank you much,
ellen

lettuce, broccoli and kale can be started now - they take cold very well. the lettuce will probably sprout first, and even in a deep freeze, they should be OK in their containers.

pepper and tomatoes I usually sow in March.
