What a difference some sun makes. The middle is the oldest out of these by one week.

The book-ends were planted at the same time, but I waited a couple of weeks to set the far left in the full sun (today, actually). The difference between 8 or so hours of direct sun and filtered sun was pretty large.

Sun is a key element in growing tomatoes, but I never thought it would be that dramatic. I put my seedlings in sun as soon as possible and my garden has full sun all day.
