In colder climates, season is usually done because weather gets too cold or frost. My season is starting soon. I've been doing some test germination of old seeds already using the paper towel method. |

Nice. I'm still waiting for it to be warm enough at night to plant outdoors. The containers are all ready to go and the plants are waiting... just need the weather to cooperate.

The weather this year has been outstanding! Lots of rain, lots of sunshine and no cold and damp nights. I'm using all new potting soil mix this year with a little added organic fertilizer and calcium. All of the plants are growing like crazy and I can see at least 100 tomatoes of all sizes and shapes. I have only added liquid Miracle Grow once so far. I'll get some pictures the next time it stops raining. It's looking like a jungle and it's still June.

I think you have me beat, but you have a month head start! Any way, here's mine planted May 20th. You will have to excuse all the hanging stuff. My wife hangs stuff from anywhere and everywhere. She would hang stuff on me if I stood still too long. The last image is her earthbox minis.

Those stands are expensive ($75 + $10 for the casters)! I buy a few more whenever I feel rich. I have 11 now. They hold up well, though a few could use a coat of paint.
