I’m jealous! LOL!
It is interesting to see some of you harvesting vegetables when we have 2-1/2 feet+ of snow up here in the frozen north! I’m jealous! LOL!

@Nina Evashkevich lol yeah, have you ever let some root veggies go through the winter to see? He talks about double covering with frost cloth under a polytunnel
How I Buy Seeds
Here's how I buy seeds for the farm. I hope it takes some stress out of the equation for you. https://youtu.be/RpPwgwBSRxo

Lots of great tips, thank you very much! I like the business side of this too, a new perspective for productivity
Getting the urge
First, thanks, Zack for all the info you share. Because of you, I'm going to try to incorporate intense succession planting this year. I'm getting the urge to plant something even though my last frost isn't until around May 15th. My basement Kratky hydroponics is growing and I harvested a little lettuce the other day. Looking like broccoli and cauliflower isn't too far away. But tomatoes, strawberries, peppers and cantaloupes are real slow. Probably because they are heirlooms. This will be the first year I've tried growing in my unheated hoophouse. Spring gardening is a lot like baseball's spring training. Lots of hope and optimism.

When to start seeds
Hello! When do you start your seeds? Do you use a planting calendar and/or schedule? I know we’re in different areas and can adjust and learn from each other, plus I’d love to see what you do! Here I used Zach’s document to help me plan. If you’d like it, here’s where I found it: https://mailchi.mp/00b9edbec530/euq7k90o61 Thank you!

@Joe Naiman-Sessions wow that’s incredible, thank you for sharing! I have some more work to do to plan. And then again to adjust from experience. I’ll look at your list and adjust to mine a month earlier. Thank you so much, valuable info
