Sadly I've killed my beautiful seedlings and it is very very sad. I even shed a few tears over it. I'm afraid I may end up getting more of the same rotten garden I get every year. Oh well. Here's what happened:
My seedlings looked better than ever because I actually fertilized them this time around. I knew they needed to be hardened off before being planted in the ground, so I set them on our picnic table outside and forgot all about them. I left them out all night, but I don't think they froze- I think they scorched. They are pretty much all dead.
I bought plants form the greenhouse today, but I'll wait til next week to plant since we're supposed to be getting a storm. The kids gardens are looking typically bad. The small greens are starting to bolt and hardly anything came up and the few things that did are tiny and stunted.
I'm going to add some micronutrients and sulfur to acidify the soil. It's very frustrating.
