Warm Temps are Tempting!
I normally start about a week earlier than the organic farmers guide says for Maine since I'm on the coast but the incredibly warm temps are tempting me to start even earlier. My pepper are already started but that follow suit... Do I go crazy and start some tomatoes?? I did start Brussel Sprouts last night, too.

I'm getting stuff ready to go out as fast as I can. I'm planning to put some things out early, but just not bet the whole farm on it. Plant a few tomatoes now, being prepared to cover them if need be, but save some in reserve in case disaster strikes. Tomatoes well covered can survive temps in the 30's as long as above freezing and doesn't last too long, though they might not like it very much.
