solarbirdOne night with a cold-frame in place and the seeds have started SPROUTING! Yay!
The coldframe
(Yes, it's at an angle; that's on purpose. Helps rain run off.)
It was sagging a bit and collecting water, so I added those little tent poles between furrows, and I'm still keeping an eye on it - I added a couple more zip-ties to tighten things up a little after taking that picture, tho' they're in places you can't even see, so the picture is still current.
But yay, sprouting! They're very tiny, but there. Now hopefully the frame will handle the winds (which are starting to pick up) and the cold and snow(!) now in the forecast. Fingers crossed!
