We have a few more days of decent planting weather with a cool spell coming May 7 though 10. Make sure to check soil temperatures if you are planting during during that cool period make sure you are not planting to deep, using seed with higher cool germ and wait until soil temperatures start to rise, hopefully close to 65 degrees. The least risky approach would be to stop planting on Saturday and resume after the cool period when soil temperatures get to 65 degrees.
