10th March. I transplanted for the first time this year, some seedlings to outdoors! It was a sunny but freezing day, with a low of -6ºC, and a high of +3ºC.
However since I got a plastic cold frame, even with these night temperatures, the soil does not freeze completely. And it does not freeze at all, if further protected by a black plastic sheet and peatmoss.
Therefore I planted a few snap peas and a few broad beans (fava beans). Just a few.
They will have a week ahead with very low temperatures, almost a week of a constant deep freeze. Will they survive, under this protection?
Stay tuned for updates!
