I'd like to join in this experiment. I'm a long time reader, first time poster (I think this is my first), and this seems as good a time as any to start joining in the conversations!
We don't buy any products in plastic jugs I could use as a cloche, so I will be using Walls O Water as my cloche. Last year I didn't plant transplants until about June 5th or 6th (to be honest, I planted about a week before that and nearly everything was killed with a freeze!). This Spring is considerably warmer though, so this years plant out time might be the last week of May. That puts me about at about a month early right now. I've got two raised beds to do this with, I think I'll try Bloody Butcher in one and Little Bells in the other (both fresh seed from last year).
