Last year I started germing around March 23rd here in Zone 6b.. This year I find myself a little late at March 6th! Reason being, they'll be going in the hoop house and I'm thinking I should have started late Feb. Usually they're in the ground by May 10-15th. I'm shooting for mid to late april so long as the soil cooperates. The ground in the hoophouse hasn't broken 45F just yet .. while the ambient temp's get near 70F on a decently sunny day. I've got the itch to say the least!! We had a rough winter here in CT, like so many of my other northern neighbors lol
