Notes

Due to pandemic, Maryland Sheep & Wool is canceled, so I can't get seedlings. The seeds I'm using are kind of old, and this is a region where you're supposed to start them inside in February. So, odds aren't good.

Last night was the last night we should have below 40F for the season.

I put 3 seeds in each spot (in case some don't sprout) and placed a mason jar upside down over them to act as a mini greenhouse or a cold frame. I hope that's enough.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
