Utilizing a coffee grinder or even a grinding attachment from the food processor, grind a mix that's 50% chia seed and 50% a variety of pumpkin, sunflower and sesame.

We had nearly a week of colder weather. 40s at night. Will my garden survive?

I planted tomatoes, cucumbers, bush beans, peppers (bell), eggplant, onions, and strawberries along with a few herbs. I covered the eggplant and peppers on the coldest nights. But the cucumbers aren't looking the greatest and the bean's leaves look pale. The tomatoes are fine. They just seem to have not grown an inch. We had a really warm day yesterday and I noticed one of the tomato plants has flowers on it already! It's only 10" high! This can't be good, can it? Should I fertilize everything? When I planted I added compost manure to the soil, but I'm not sure this was enough so seeing how stressed the plants were by the cold. I normally don't fertilize until I start seeing the fruit forming. For the most part the onions look good and so do the strawberries and herbs.
What should I do about the rest? The weather looks warm for here on out. And what's up with that tomato plant flowering so early?

I am in Minnesota and we are experiencing the same weather. Cukes like to be very warm, and will just sit until it warms up. I am waiting to plant them and melons until it does and they grow a little more in my hothouse. The squash plants are going in today since they have gotten so big, I cant wait anymore. I would not fertilize at all right now. You risk burning the plants since they are not actively growing. Just wait. My beans are also sickly yellow. I don't usually plant until June 1st(beans, corn), but I gave it shot and have learned once again that here in MN(just north of St Paul) it is a waste of time. That's why I start many things in pots on May 1st. As for the flower on the tomato, remove it. You don't want that tiny plant setting fruit, it needs to put its energy into growing foliage. Good Luck! Hopefully, warm weather is finally here!!
