Up to 900 now, give or take a hundred or two. Sigh. Why can't I resist? Almost 300 varieties - way too many I like, and too many new ones to try!

My garden area can do 30ish if I really push it. If I actually give them a 3 feet apart I can do 10. Last year I did 8 because I had a beautiful summer squash that will be invited back. Jalapenos were sent to buckets so I could do tomatoes.

Jalapenos in 5 gallon buckets do great! Bell peppers not so much..

Sell it to Bonnie Plants.

Just kidding, I'll make a histogram and post it on here---well just as soon as I get the time to put all the entries into a file and plot it up.

I grow 30-60 plants each year.
I start a lot more and give them away.
This year my garden space is larger and I may grow more!

I hope I don't grow over 30 containers this year.
The number was 20 in December but added a few and dropped some til next year . Of course that means many extras for friends, neighbour and even for the thrift shop. Lucky thrifters! Thanks to T'vl my plants are better than ever.
Not counting the 9 micro dwarfs .

What a lovely idea to donate them to a thrift shop

Micro dwarfs definitely don't count, do they?

I am growing about 28 plants of 20 varieties of tomatoes this year. This is roughly 50% cut from last year.
