As far as you...Thank you, I'll check that out. As far as your English is concerned, I thought you were an educated American living in Germany. Your written word (English) is better than 90% of those who have English as their first language. If the truth be known I'm a grammar watcher. My standards have been reduced because I know the schools don't put an emphasis on the written word any longer. It's a shame, but it is what it is.

Good instruction.<br /> You can buy it in gardencenters and it will keep for years. You can also put some pieces of wood or stones on the<br />corners of the fleece to keep it on the soil (very light weighted) In spring and summer when seeds germinate they do not<br />dry out when it´s too hot.and salads are really more tender under fleece. Give it a try! And excuse my poor English.

Good tho...Thank you for the good wishes, Christel. Good thoughts are much appreciated. I hope you see this comment because I'd like to know more about garden fleece. I put a layer of pine boughs over the plants as well as leaves, hoping this will protect the plants. Fleece just sounds so much more cozy and warm.Angie's frugal Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07501238383146880477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-809691927256994512.post-70531963446560336552015-02-11T02:04:29.364-08:002015-02-11T02:04:29.364-08:00During the cold winter months I still have some sa...During the cold winter months I still have some salads in my garden. There are lamb´s lettuce and some endive under a double<br />layer of gardening fleece. I also like this sort of fleece in spring to cover seeds and young seedlings which helps to keep the soil moist and also protects against birds. In February I put small glass cloches over chive which gives us a nice earlier crop.<br />Angie, I wish you a successful start in the new gardening season!

This year it has been rather cold so I'm not sure my winter garden will survive. Tomorrow night the temperatures are predicted to go 20 degrees (F) lower than the normal for this time of the year. I guess I'll have to wait to see what happens to my veggies until the next day.Angie's frugal Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07501238383146880477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-809691927256994512.post-79771144600758103712015-02-10T12:30:57.130-08:002015-02-10T12:30:57.130-08:00Your new garden gloves can´t get lost so easily be...Your new garden gloves can´t get lost so easily because of their bright pink color.<br />I tend to loose my little garden knives and sometimes find them weeks later.<br />I think, I should have garden knives with bright pink handles. Easier to spot probably.<br />Our gardening season here in Southern Germany will not start before the beginning of march.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
