And Another Winter Storm Warning...

I feel like this is the same post I had up last week. Just when the snow was ALMOST gone, we're scheduled to get another round of winter storms. This one is supposed to bring up to 3/4" of ice before a range of snow. We've heard anywhere from 5"-8", 6"-12", and 1-2 feet, depending on who is covering the upcoming storm. It was nice enough today that I was able to get out and do a six mile run with some friends, and it's hard to believe that I'm not going to get to do that again for a while.

Pictures will come when the storm does!

Broccoli was planted in my new seed starting flat two days ago -Jan 28- a bit later than last year. I found my notes, and I started my broccoli on January 15th last year. I bought a different kind of seed starting kit this time, only because they didn't have my normal Jiffy one. I was VERY surprised when I added water to some of these "pods" outside of the flat... They blew up INSTANTLY! My Jiffy pods had a mesh covering that held them together, these did NOT! So... I somewhat wasted 12 new little pods. I'm going to save them to fill other holes as I start new plants, but I was pretty disappointed. Oh well, broccoli is started, tomato is potted up, and I've got another round of lettuce in place of the tomato, and the cilantro that never sprouted.
