We finally seem to be having spring! I've been taking my seedlings out for a walk daily. The first couple of days it was for 2 hours. Today it was 3 hours, tomorrow, probably 3 hours again.
I'm a little nervous because next week we will have a couple of days where the high will only be low 50's. That's ok for lettuce and broccoli, but the tomatoes, peppers, eggplants and basil will definitely protest.

Tomatoes, peppers and eggplant may not prefer 50 degree temps, but they will be fine.. Our peppers, tomatoes and eggplant spent their first full night in the greenhouse last night...along with the onions... Ambient temps can go as low as 40°...as long as the potting mix/soil stays warmer... They were of course hardened off..not a big jump though from the basement where they were..it stays about 50-55 down there and the temp last night never dropped below 50°
