Cold Frame #1
Posted by Ralph E. Cook on Apr 2, 2010 in Gardening
Hey Campers,
We have planted our first cold frame. Built out of a patio door, rigid insulation and cinder blocks, the first crop will include Spinach, Baby Bok Choy, Purple Carrots, Purple Cauliflower and Red Onions.
Update 4/7 it’s alive!:
Tomorrow I will pick up a book at the library all about building cold frames, so then I can find out everything I did wrong!
Update 4/7: Jeff Ashton says don’t use glass for your cold frame because it’s dangerous, I say too late! Today’s outside temperature at A.S.C. 48 degrees inside the cold frame = 95 degrees!
Once again we have been a bit out of touch, but there is lots of good news to share, so stop back soon.
Peace 4 real,
