February To-Do List for Zone 7
When you see the first crocus open, consider it time to set out transplants of lettuce, cabbages, and onions; cover them on cold nights.
In the garden, sow seeds of radishes and cold-hardy lettuces.
When daffodils "pop," plant seeds of spinach, turnips, and peas.
Cover the pea bed with clear plastic until sprouts begin to emerge; then, immediately switch to a floating row cover to protect the seedlings from weather and birds.
Start herb seeds indoors under lights.
Also indoors, start seeds of annual flowers—such as ageratum, petunia, and snapdragons—that need 8 to 10 weeks to reach transplant size.
