I'm not surprised that you had a great crop planting in January, but I've had plenty of peas that succumbed to an early demise in cold soils, too. You never know in spring what's going to happen.<br /><br />You've probably got it right with the onion sets-- my colleague Kathy planted onions in November and has them bulbing up now. Wow. My garlic is looking good, but needs a lot more warm weather to grow vigorously. It's about 6 inches high, too.<br /><br />And I can imagine all the lettuce in the cold frames!

The onion sets we planted in November look as good as the garlic about 1/4 inch around and 6 inches high. WE are up to our ears in lettuce right now, more than we can eat in the cold frames. Oh first picking of spinach today, it was yummy.Randy Emmitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10292186655869617897noreply@blogger.com
