I've been postponing setting       out my lettuce and vinca plants, but they're getting crowded       inside under the plant light.              From this morning's weather radio forecast, it sounds like       we're going to be dumped directly into summer next week       with temps going into the 80s. Who wants to bet those       poor lettuce plants will go directly to seed )do not       pass go, do not collect $200)?              Nyssa, who finds it frustrating sometimes to be a       gardener, but is bored out of her mind if she skips       the growing season              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
