Since it doesn't get too terribly cold here in Seattle, today I built a little make-shift cold frame between my garage and my neighbor's fence. I've got corregated translucent plastic for the roof, plain old wooden sides, and an old shower curtain door-flap for extra insulation (and colorful cheer

). Because I don't want the pots sitting directly on bare earth, I've used plastic shelving on the ground in most places and two-by-fours laid along the ground elsewhere. I'll let you know how well it works, come spring.
Best regards,
Carl
