We had a super cold winter we had temperatures well below zero and I know that I've had some luck last year with my asparagus and my raspberries and strawberries. Is there anything special that I need to do as we reach spring in the summer for those fruit and vegetable plants because of the cold winter that we had actually no. It really isn't anything actually need to do based on the typical temperatures that we had the benefit of getting to know before getting the typical temperatures was that it insulated those plants right when we get rid of the snow and then we get a free that's when we eat are perennials and shrubs that we've planted in some of our trees and some of her back in her garden. I keep coming back to me see that kick the bucket when it doesn't have the root cover the snow. It could mulch covering on something that's in the worry that they don't come back. You had mentioned in an earlier podcast that if you could shovel the ground that it's okay to several of you know, to dig a hole now. Is that also go to planting new vegetables and things like that for my garden. No it's not okay to their thinking vegetable quite yet. Even though you can dig a hole and you can plant things that I get based on perennial like flowering or or cranial grandsons or woody shrubs or even trees. I would definitely steer clear from planting any vegetable and tell that soil really warms up her allotted time, but it's all based on the actual plant itself on the vegetable you planting what soil temperature preferred Andy and get the age of your or your plant it's there. I mean, there's a cool season crops like lettuce and spinach and kale that don't mind being planted outside in the cooler temperatures. You can even get away with plaintiff and onions into cooler soil temperatures. But if you think about like tomatoes or corn or need yet make sure that our cell temperature is definitely warmer and when I say warmer and probably get it and didn't say about 65 to 70°. That might even be pushing it okay. Like a lot of people say that you should wait until Mother's Day or so to start planting her garden so you is that the reason why because of the warmer temperatures yet. It's not the air temperature that were worried about with the new seedlings, it's that it's the soil temperature to keep those roots warm
