@too larry or anyone. can i plant pine tree seedlings this saturday with 1.5 months to go before the last freeze?

or should i pot them all and put them under a light in a non climate controlled building?
The planting season is almost over, so the sooner the better. {here anyway. It might be later where you are at} And they do better if you plant them when it's cold. A good rain afterwards helps too.

Hope they do good for you. I have about 20-25 red cedar seedlings that I dug up when I was cutting the fire line around the longleaf pines. They are all together in one pot. I water them when I give the cats water, so they are still alive, but I have to do something with them soon.

Still no sprouts on my pepper planting. Feb 15-17 are good above ground days. I'm going to plant a few tomato seeds then.

Wow, I'm real jealous of you guys, both in the weather you're having, and the land you have available. Won't be warm enough for outdoor planting here for another 6-8 weeks.
I dug a 3 foot deep hole in the garden. When the sprouts come up, I'll pot them and put them in there with a couple of shower doors over them on cold nights. I'm sure we will have more frosts.

I've always imagined building a few walipinis when I have land of my own to work with. Earth, 2x4's, and plastic covering.
