  1. Lucky you can do that. I live in a warmer part of my province and we had a mild winter here. Only -30 for a week was our coldest. Maybe could have done spinach this past winter.

  2. I'm trying to buy the international version of the book I'm in Mexico maybe I'll relate to it or somthin ,well it sends me to amazon and I input "newsub" for the discount but it's not applying , what em I doing wrong?

  3. How often did you have to uncover and water during the winter? Also, do you leaf harvest during the winter or just save it all for a nice early spring crop? Lastly, would appreciate design details on your beds…how long are they and do you have cross members to prevent bowing out?

  4. I notice irrigation pipes in with your spinach etc. Doesn't it freeze? We blow out all ours sometime in October, so nothing is watered after that. I'm zone 6b also, but didn't get as cold as you. I'm more semi- desert in north east Oregon.

  5. I grew lettuce, turnips, beets, carrots, spinach, 3 types of kale, even radishes over winter in a low tunnel. We have milder winters in my area but we still get below freezing. I wanted in the fall and let them Get established then over winterd them and harvested all winter.

  6. I’ve found that blue scotch kale does well, and over winters better than red russian for me. My area (zone 5b) had a mild winter and only got down to -15C, and both kale varieties survived with no protection. Last year, a few blue scotch kale plants survived -30C with no protection.

  7. Hi Curtis, we're in Okotoks (zone 4b) and was wondering what material you're using for your tunnels. Is it just 6mil poly? Have you tried any frost tunnels, or any you might recommend?
