Well I lost all but one plant due to the cold weather (hard frost warnings the last three nights, 28-31 degrees). At least we haven't had snow like some. The one that survived the heater was working the other one in the backyard the heater failed and froze the plant. The ones at the new patch are all gone, no heat source because no electricity to run to the hoop houses. The new batch of seeds (back-ups) that I started on Sunday 4-28 have all sprouted and are looking to go in the ground sometime next week, weather permitting. Long gourdes have not sprouted yet a few more days they should be up. This weekend I will start more back-ups to the back-ups to prevent any more setbacks this year. I guess I started too early this year to get a jump start on the season and Mother Nature always wins.
