We just talked about the Minnesota growing season! Well if you’d like to stretch that growing season there’s a cheap way to do it.
Black plastic will warm up your soil so you can plant earlier. Secure black plastic over your garden bed several weeks before the last frost date, then pull the plastic up and plant.
Raised beds also warm up faster. You can take the soil’s temperature! For tomatoes it should be 50 degrees before planting.
