I checked my cold frame today and I have little tomato sprouts in about 18 of the 42 pots, but no peppers yet. It's been overcast a lot, so I've been opening up the bubblewrap only to mist them. I also sprinkled them with cinnamon today (as an antifungal).

The two tomato seedlings I planted in WOWs have already grown to the tops, so I've added a foot of bubble wrap to each. I also got a half-inch-high tomato seedling from someone at the community garden this weekend, so it's in another wow and already an inch high. They seem to double in size each week!

Some of the native wildflowers and perennials I planted on the same day as my tomato and pepper seeds have come up: 3 gilia species, desert bluebells, and a native buckwheat.
