New raised beds

Put in five new raised beds this weekend but my tomatoes are not looking too good.  I hope I have something to plant.

    Are they grow lights or just lights? Plants will need full spectrum lights as close to natural daylight as possible.
  • You've been very busy - too early for much seed sowing here just yet but agree about the light source as mentioned above.
    Your little Assistant looks a bit cross about the seeds/plants as well  ;)

    this is only 3 weeks ago.  It was 4 degrees f.  The cold killed a lot of our plants. Now its 80 degrees f on our side of the weather and just to the north it's 50 degrees colder
    .   Crazy weather

    Hi @jamesholt - are you in Texas? I can't remember, but there's new poster who is asking about planting a clematis and a wisteria and she's concerned about current temps being 90 F, but she's been told it'll get colder. It's hard for us to judge, but I wonder if you can give her a bit of help at all? Would be great if you can  :)
