Tomato Starting Day!

GoDawgs · April 1, 2019

Today was Tomato Starting Day and I also shifted up the peppers, roselle and herbs from their cell packs to 24 oz cottage cheese containers. The shelves are starting to fill up.

The top row has today's seeded tomatoes and peeking up behind them are peppers not ready for larger containers. They were slower to wake up than their friends.

The middle shelf has the shifted up peppers. The bottom shelf has the four roselle plants with basil and three kinds of dill behind them while to the right are the Millionaire eggplant and a summer savory.

Hopefully by the time the tomatoes need shifting up, it will be warm enough out on the porch for both the peppers and tomatoes to give up their shelf space and go outside to harden off. I've still got flowers to start.

Tomorrow I need to bury a few sweet potatoes in a window box to get slips started and the last four broccoli plants need to be planted. Isn't it fun playing in the dirt?
