That's good to hear that most of the grapes survived or rebounded Submariner! I am glad to hear things are going strong.

MBM - I didn't know what lupine was so I googled it to take a look. That's unfortunate to hear. Do these plants and their color last most of the season?

It's too expensive for me to heat a greenhouse but I do use high tunnels for year round harvesting.

There's time for another batch of peas if you have a variety that doesn't need more than 70 days. They'll germinate fast, the 30 day forecast looks good for peas, and they'll stand up to frost and even light snow.

Carrots, turnip, early maturing cucumbers (Ministro, 49 days), radish, beets.
