dering if I should wait until after the rain to plant or go ahead and plant today? I am a bit late getting my garden in this year, and now we have a major storm coming through and are supposed to be getting about 2 inches of rain and some high winds in the next week. Wondering if I should wait until after the rain to plant or go ahead and plant today?

Answer 1

The soil needs to be reasonably warm, as it is now, but you don't want to drown the small roots of your seedlings. I would get them in as soon as you have a dry day, and hope for the best.
