I know I got really disappointed over that frost or freeze we had in Michigan. I lost most of my tomatoes and peppers. One day it is near 90 degrees then down to 33 degrees. I got the AeroGarden 24 xl to help me rush my seedlings along. You are right about failure is the best teacher. Good luck with your garden this year.
