Did the first preliminary work in the garden this week - general clean-up, prepping some annual beds, doing some work on the irrigation system and perennial herb beds and starting a couple of rows of spinach. Also harvested the first asparagus of the year.
The greenhouse has been in use all winter and we have been getting really good tomatoes for months and assorted lettuce greens for a while too. The shelves are almost full of trays of seed starts and there are a lot more to get going over the next month or so. Even with good ventilation and running the auto fan as necessary it's still getting to +100F in there on sunny days. The good news is that without running the heater, it's staying +50F even on the recent nights near freezing.
