Morning Glories: Is anybody in zones 5 or 6 starting MG seeds yet?, 1 by Glenda_Michigan

I'm in lower Michigan (zone 5b) and I haven't started my MGs yet. Been thinking about it though. For the past few days we've had low 30's for the highs and low 20's for the low temps - all with winds gusting to 35 mph. We're freeeeezing here!!

At least where I live, it has never been safe to put MGs outside until a week or so (after) Mother's Day. It's a real bummer to wake up in the morning and see your new little MG vines burnt and withered from frost, just because I was impatient. We just can't count on consistent temps or conditions here.

We've got a saying in here - "If you don't like the weather in Michigan, just wait a few minutes; it'll change."
