Good for you. I hope this is the last frost for the year.

This is how I do my winter garden. I turn my garden into a green house. I took it down a few weeks ago to till. I am going to build it better this year and use 4x4 post instead of t post. They could not handle the weight. I will also build permanent rafters in the improved design. It worked great takes 5 minutes to open or close. I use a small ceramic space heater during hard freezes and never lost a plant. Next year I will keep some of my pepper plants all year and see what happens.

Looking good, I find the earlier you can plant the better you do

That was from January. This is it today. I took it down 2 weeks ago to till thinking I was safe from frost.

Very nice garden and great idea on the cover. I might give something like that a shot next year. This is my first year ever doing a garden so it'll be a work in progress. Attachment 103438
