2016 Tomato season started today

[imp]

I couldn't stand it anymore, tomorrow I start tomatoes and maybe some peppers; the peppers may wait another 2 weeks, depends on the weather.

The mesquites aren't budding yet, but I am ready.

Those seedlings look great for 3 weeks old.
They should take off from now on. Mine @ 12 days are still tiny and starting to grow true leaves.

They do look great

Mine are 8 days old today with no true leaves yet. The nine I planted in mid December want to go out and play already

Salt, mine started showing true leave after 11 days form sowing, 7 days after sprouting. I am going to keep some kind of timeline on this . Of course it depends also on the temperatures and the variety.

I gave the potting soil a healthy watering of compost tea before transplanting and I got a new 300 watt LED grow light from Santa Claus.

Well, it's been a good day so far and have planted cells with 40 different tomato seeds so far, but ran out of label marker sticker thingys. Have to get something to make up as marker sticks.

And then more tomorrow, <smile>.
