I finally sat down this weekend with my seeds and planned out when I will need to get things done this spring. With all I chose to take on I had to make some decisions on what was going to get an early start in the house and what would have to wait for warmer temperatures outside. I would like to get my cold frame together this year and I have always had a design in mind for a small greenhouse for the south side of my house. This might be the year I get at least one of those things done. I do have a 3 tiered shelf on wheels which can be rolled into and out of the garage, so that is a good start. I can thank this blog for giving me the extra boost to get some of these things done. Once you put something down in writing, it is extra incentive to get the project done. This is also the first year I have written a seeding schedule out instead of relying on my memory to get things done. I hope it also helps provide a basic template for those of you who are looking to do the same.
