Healthy soil and sustainable growing

[richard green <greenrw71@hotmail.com>]

North Florida, Sitting on my porch in shorts, drinking a cup of coffee pondering which bed to weed, I've notice less weeds since increasing mulch levels but the slugs numbers are growing...I suffer a dearth of ducks...slight chill in the air after a five day run of warmish weather. I keep contemplating a move further north but grew up here so would miss the redneck riviera. I enjoy learning of gardening from different areas. But I love Florida, However come summer....I will be crying about the heat.....

> Monday I was still amending new beds, after ground warmed up by 2pm. Monday night snow, now 14 below. Will snow blanket insulate enough or will ground take forever to thaw to get back to work on it? Time to go thru seeds and order more. Anybody able to make garden progress out there?
