Took a 50 cent drawer pull and a dollar tree mesh trashcan and made a pretty adorable little garden cloche to protect seedlings from critters while they are small!!! Looks pretty good if I don't say so myself!

February 17! Starting my first 3 gallon milk jugs winter sowing jugs! I am about to place them outside in the snow!!!! Mother nature will nurture them to grow when the time is right! These first 6 plants are extremely frost hardy plants! And should be the first to emerge, even we are still getting frosts!!! Multiple drainholes in the jugs, slice them open almost all the way leaving a small "hinge" adding some high quality potting soil such as happy frog or ocean forest plant your seeds in the moist medium! Then duct tape them up! And place outside...once a week or so just keep an eye to see the soil is moist! Use a spray bottle if it starts to dry out! These seedlings will be strong and robust and hardened off when the time is right to transplant direct right into your garden!
