Yesterday my garlic sprouts got frosted and snowed on. I do not think the elements will hurt them much. Indeed as soon as the sun hit the snow it melted away. A couple of years ago my garlic did not even sprout until May and I thought it had all died. This year my garlic sprouts are all already a couple inches high, and it seems that practically every one of them sprouted.
This morning I also noticed that last year's kale plants that the deer completely pruned earlier in the winter have sprouted new greenery. After the deer ate all the kale greens I thought the plants were dead. But no - it looks like I'll be harvesting more of last years kale soon. And pretty soon I'll be planting this year's kale.
