What a difference a week makes!!

First true leaves emerge on our tomato seedlings.  23 varieties to choose from -- just 4 months to go!
This year's tomato plants are progressing nicely.  We are starting to see the first true leaves on some of the larger seedlings.  We have at least four seedlings that have sprouted for all the first seeds that were planted.  The latest planting was completed on Friday, March 11 and we should be seeing seedlings soon.  Among the varieties are plenty of heirlooms, salad tomatoes, and the more recent planting included not only repeats of the heirlooms and salads types but also hybrids with plenty of flavor.  We have 23 varieties that we've planted that include reds, yellows, oranges, greens, blacks and purples!  For full details, go to the January 9, 2011 posting which lists all the varieties.
