I'm looking for light ropes (wish I had seen this before Christmas!) and planning my square foot garden planting cycle. PLEASE keep sharing your experiences. Thank you so much!

I agree with you all around. It seems that someone should produce and publish more recent data on this, along with practical application advice. I like your blog BTW. I believe I referenced it (if I remember correctly) in my recent bit on forced rhubarb. I hope I didn’t sound put off – not at all. I agree with you all around.

I'm really impressed at how you've managed to make the data intelligible in one post! I took two and I still feel I've just baffled readers. Surely in the years since the study was done somebody in one of the agricultural colleges or universities has published results. Maybe they are secret for commercial growers(?) Wouldn't it have been great if someone had tried smaller increments at the lower temperatues as it's always a close call as to when to start sowing, and I would guess many start too cold out of impatience (or because they are reading blogs from people living further south - Northern Hemisphere only). 5 degrees C is a big jump at the cool end of the year. I look forward to your further posts as you've always got a refreshing angle on vegetable growing.
