| It may be later for some of the more difficult to germinate plants, however do not let that discourage you. It means they may not germinate this year, but plant them...sometimes some things take two years anyway. Some fabulous winter sowers take only a little cold (and sometimes really do not need any at all). It's the perfect time for annuals, vegetables and herbs, too! |

| What things were you thinking of sowing? There's is plenty of cool weather left for almost all, may be a little late for some (not all) trees or shrubs, there won't be much in the way of warmth for several weeks yet and especially not at night. I keep a rough frost calendar and we've had light frost May 1 more than one year, those cool nights will average out the 50's days for those things that require chilling. I'm still sowing perennials, have some to do this weekend with a bucket of potting soil to step over sitting in my kitchen. |
