I think you'll really like the floating row covers, and it'll mean you can get your tomatoes and peppers out earlier come spring.Phuonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07658691564062044986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341697669273675379.post-34096439012556051662015-10-16T05:37:49.323-07:002015-10-16T05:37:49.323-07:00I am always looking at winter veggies and definite...I am always looking at winter veggies and definitely admire the zone 6B person for being that dedicated and ambitious. Here I am in suburbia and my next door neighbor of three years is a wonderful organic farmer who keeps putting in more crops....and sharing their bounty with us. Sort of takes away my gardening mojo so I can redirect it into my sewing room. I do thank them profusely with jams and goodies so I hope it's a fair trade. Meanwhile, I love onions so am eager to see how yours do this winter.<br /><br />Jane Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236298438179825569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341697669273675379.post-62533266649976593912015-10-12T18:16:23.253-07:002015-10-12T18:16:23.253-07:00You make me smile with the comment about your husb...You make me smile with the comment about your husband! I hope you have good luck with your hoop idea. Would be nice for you to have veggies from it all winter. I tried a cold frame but then when there was a lot of snow i didn't want to wade out in the snow, brush it off and harvest! This year I built the soil back up in it so nothing is planted. I also have Lyme disease so not enough energy anyway. Enjoy yours!

I don't have that problem, thankfully - so peas, fava beans, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots are what I grow in winter.Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04020970904311512357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341697669273675379.post-12330697042340259962015-10-10T18:55:13.041-07:002015-10-10T18:55:13.041-07:00I would bet it ain't the heat making your PVC ...I would bet it ain't the heat making your PVC brittle but the sun exposure. Try painting it and see if it still gets brittle so fast. Direct sunlight is the most devastating part of leaving equipment outside day after day. <br /><br />How did you get those lumpy cookies into that old pair of jeans is what I can't figure out. :)<br /><br />Just kidding. You know I had to.<br /> PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.com
