It’s been a while! I’m not much of a content creator, but I’m still here! 😁
Hard to believe there was snow only a week ago. Last season I already had my cool-weather-loving plants in the ground... this year I’m just beginning the dreaded hardening off process. By mid-week, some of these will finally be planted!
There are over 500 plants in this photo, with even more still in the house under grow lights.
Pro-tip for my fellow gardeners: If you’re picking up plants from a greenhouse, don't forget to harden them off! Greenhouse plants are "soft"—if you take them straight from a cozy greenhouse and put them in the ground, they’ll get windburned and sun-scorched, and you’ll be sad when they look like 💩. Give them a few days to get used to the real world first, beginning with short spurts in the sun and gradually longer till its full days!
I hope everyone is able to get out and enjoy this awesome weather! ☀️☀️☀️
