After a bit of light reading and researching, I took our dogs on a walk. Winter is definitly here. It doesn't bring snow, but just the dull, drab, grey, wet, murky, boy this couldn't get much worse type of feeling. However there were a few things to take pictures of so I took them.

When I got back, I checked, watered and took pictures of the plants in the cold frame.

| Spinach Sprouts |
 |
| Radishes |
 |
| Red Leaf Lettuce |
 |
| Green Lettuce |
Then planted the next side of the cold frame. This is a much more condensed planting, and I hope they won't crowd when everything gets bigger. I guess only time will tell.

Isn't it amazing how slow veggies grow in the winter? I thought that with a cover, the plants would keep growing, maybe not as fast as in summer, but not in slow motion. I'm thinking of starting fall/winter crops earlier next year, but it seems impossible because our late summer and early fall is so hot, humid, and dry! Not sure how to really have plenty of veggies year round.
