So far I am exactly 14 days ahead on 2013 based on growth so have decided to play it safe and leave the houses vented. Wish I had checked the weather as it was cold the night I opended these and the next day. I started to dig in some rye and realised I could have left things a litle late. So, have covered the strip behind the tunnel with carpet and will attack it again in one week. The patch that I am standing on is barren and needs loosening up, ammending and a good amount of manure digging in. Plan is to pick up some nice aged stuff from work tomorrow for working in this weekend.
The 323 LaRiviere squash went in yesterday and its going to have to be 'hard' as there was no hardening off involved and it came from a nice warm environment. The 1290 Poirier that I stunted is now at the same stage my final batch (1730 Werner and 1107 Zunino) of seed that was sown on the 25th, so it may go into the v.small patch if it picks up otherwise the 766 Geyelin will get planted.
