Let us know how it goes. There's nothing like fresh produce.

Holy Crap, Warpt- I just saw this! 4 freaking months later!

As for my garden, we didn't get things unpacked/set up soon enough to get the greenhouse going. Boo.

However, I did get quite a bit going in my kitchen bow window though. Mostly herbs, but I do also have an aloe plant and a tray of small bibb lettuces that we've been munching on so far.

Because it's kind of dark over here, I've added a cheapo plant light (a 30$ reflector and a 30$ grow light from wally world). Never used one before, so I have no idea if what I'm doing is actually having an effect.

So now I'm looking for someone who wants to teach me about what to plant where in my wacky-shaped yard for this spring, fun fun.

Actually, propane heaters are what we use in the industry, at least here in WA. We'd set one on each end of the 75' hoop houses, and run the fans to circulate the warm air.
