I'm 6b, but right now I am hardening off all my brassica, lettuce and onion seedlings. I'll plant them next weekend, which is about a week later than I usually plant them.

Spinach seeds were planted on Saturday and last fall's spinach that over-wintered is growing like crazy. I'm holding off on the beets right now and can't decide on the potatoes. My weather instincts say I should just put them in the ground.

The peas that I pre-sprouted and planted weeks ago are up! No problem at all with rotting. The pre-sprouting did the trick.

My garlic is HUGE. It seems so much further along this year than I remember from before. I also have some over-wintered lettuce, collards, carrots and turnips. Oh, and one kohlrabi - no idea how that happened.

I really feel like spring is FINALLY here! What a winter.

Happy gardening,
Bellatrix

I've got sweetcorn up about 4 inches tall. I'll plant another date this week. Also watermelon up and looking great. I do have a mini high tunnel over the melons. The sweetcorn was planted Feb 25 with no help to warm anything. We have been much warmer than normal.

I plant early and if it doesn't work just plant again at a more normal date. Usually the early planting works.

i agree with fruitnut... i direct seeded greens/brassicas/turnips/beets/radishes/peas on feb 18 this year since it was warm (unusual) and the ground was dry enough to till (more unusual- a good thing for now but a potential problem before long...)

all are up and progressing well at this point. if they hadn't come up i would only have been out some seed and some time...

i hope to get a second batch in sometime this week provided we get a little drying...

i have transplanted zukes, basil and cukes to a hoophouse over the past few days as well...trying to get a jump on the farmer's market season.

i'm going to try transplanting some sweet corn as well this year... planted 4 plug trays yesterday...

I planted my brassicas about a month ago. All of them are growing well now.

I planted some Silver Queen corn seeds out about 2 weeks ago and they are coming up now.

I'm about to sow squash and the rest of the warm season crops. It has been so warm this spring that my soil is already quite warm.

I planted fava bean seeds in the ground two weeks ago but they haven't yet sprouted. I sowed lettuce, arugula, mache and beets today and I will be transplanting the brassicas later this week. All my fall planted garlic are 6 inches tall.

broccoli, arugula, spinach, lettuce (mesclun mix), beets, carrots, parsnip, radishes: overwintered, also direct sowed additional seeds 3/20
peas: sowed 3/20
fave beans: sowed 3/20
parsley, cilantro: overwintered, sowed new parsley a couple weeks ago
kale: I put my transplants out and something ate them or they fried under their plastic greenhouse cover, started more seeds inside while I await the row cover I ordered.

My peas and spinach are up and growing; carrots are just getting started. Broccoli, swiss chard, beets and turnips went in last week. This weekend I will probably put in lettuce, cabbage, radishes, collards, celeriac, kale, mizuna and mustard.

Given the unusual weather, though, I'm just not sure how they'll do. Many of them should have been overwintered, but it just wasn't possible last year.

My fall garlic is well above 12" now... it's making me hungry!

Planted last night - Broccoli, Cauliflower, lettuce, spinach and cabbage. Need to plant beets, carrots, radish and more lettuce in the next few days.

You 7ers are doing good. I am in 8 and way behind when it comes to cool crops. Actually, all I have is lettuce mix and some radishes. I am not in a spring-cool-crop friendly zone here near ATL, GA. By the time my lettuces are up, probably it will get so hot that they will bolt. So I am gearing up for hot weather veggies. And for that, I am not in hurry. We have a long hot growing season. I am working on OKRAs now. hehe.

I've got kohlrabi, carrots and cauliflower in the ground, though they are looking cold and sad. I started onions from seed, and they're still looking so puny that I'm afraid to plant them yet.

I've got lots of brassicas in, both transplants and direct seeds. Peas are up, potatos are in, some lettuce out, onions I started myself are out. There are more of all of these to go out in the next week or so, plus carrots to be seeded. Herbs are all starting to break dormancy. Soon I'll put out my parsley. I'm a little worried about the poor cherry blossoms with the cold nights predicted the next few days, but what can you do? That's spring for you! (At last!)

I am not into spring cold crops, because we have a short spring and things like broccolies will just bolt. The only cold crops I have right now are lettuce and some Swiss chards. But If I had to do more, I would not have was wasted a minute putting my seedlings and seeds in the ground. Never worry about onions, broccolies... getting lost because of spring frost, as long as the seedlings are pre hardened. Of course, I am talking about Zone 7ers.

We're harvesting overwintered crops (kale, broccoli, cilantro, lettuces) right now. The lettuces and cilantro made it through the winter in low tunnels or cold frames; kale and broccoli survived all the snow! Carrots (sown in late October) will mature in the next few weeks. Onions and garlic will be ready in late May (I think...?)

Recently set in the ground: chinese cabbage, broccoli. Seeded: carrots, arugula, spinach, radish, snap peas.

Anyone know when it will be too late to plant seed potatoes, or when it would be too late to start potatoes from TPS?

seysonn is right, this has been a very very warm spring in ATL which has microclimates between zone 7 & 8 everywhere!
I have spring crops in but I planted them very early, and they are doing well. Finishing up the last of fall/winter planted lettuces and chicories, carrying over carrots and some other cole crop veggies but many are bolting already.
I've got potatoes in, I just plant a small, whole organic potato and let it go. The peas never much germinated but the favas are looking good, radishes grew so fast in warm temps they are about 1/2" around and ready to harvest. Barbie radishes!

Well I am in Zone 5, but with my high tunnels and row cover, it could be said that I grow in a Zone 7. Each layer of protection will give you one zone south, so they say.

I have broccoli, beets, radishes, haikuri turnips, carrots, leeks, onions, spinach, lettuce, cabbage, napa cabbage, cauliflower, potatoes and tomatoes already planted in my high tunnels here in North Central Kansas.
