I have planter boxes inside my greenhouse from YYC Planters. And they are beautiful!

What do you think I should do with the extra space?

I hope to fill the planters with soil this fall so they will be all ready for spring.

I would also LOVE to set up an archway trellis inside the greenhouse.

Indoor planting reminder!

Zinnias, cilantro and nasturtiums can also be direct sown.

I added melons to this list, but really about mid April seems to be the perfect time to start those indoors for me. I find they grow much slower than squash.

What are else are you planting this week?
