Well, the gas heater kept the temperature above freezing in the solarium last night. Who knows? Maybe the tomatoes will come out of dormancy if it gets warm enough in there during the day. I still need to get some more (less durable) plastic sheeting for an internal layer to retard heat loss at night.
I started some broccoli seeds inside last night. If they sprout decently, I'll transfer them to containers in the solarium. Also start at least one long planter of lettuce. Probably another of spinach. All those will grow under 50 degrees.
Potatoes are still growing. One plant especially. Leaves on a couple got frost damage but seem to be okay.
Fire burned out in the fireplace last night, after all. Not enough ashes for a base to keep them going. Oh, well. Think I'll be building a few fires there this winter.
