There were several deaths in the hothouse last night and today. The cucumber seedlings I planted out succumbed to something like wilt or some fungal disease. I think I planted them out too early in their growth cycle, and the temperatures have been cold. Since we do not heat our hothouse or greenhouse, the plants have to be strong enough to survive some major temperature shifts in March and April. The pictures show the dying plants. Sad. I planted 3 more 6 packs of cucumber seed today. I will keep them in the greenhouse longer this time.
The yard looks great as Illijana, my wife, just mowed the lawn, and there are lots of daffodils and tulips blooming at the moment.
