The weather has finally been warm enough to plant some things out. I'm so excited! It is so satisfying to see the little plants you have been nurturing take off, and grow independently in the garden. Lettuce, the cabbage family, and onions can be planted early (several weeks to a month before the last frost date) as they are cold hardy plants and can withstand some frost. Make sure all danger of frost is past before planting tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant. I always water plants well with a strong Liquid Fish solution (about 2 oz. per gallon of water) right after planting to help them take off faster.
