I haven't caught up on this and many other threads for a while because I have been busy with work.

Here is my tomato grow list. I am growing many more varieties than I can plant in my own community garden plots. I have several people in my community garden that have agreed to grow out tomatoes for me with the promise to let me have a few from each plant so I can save seeds!

Abe Lincoln
Amana Orange
Aunt Gertie's Gold
Aunt Ruby's German Green - a favorite of mine
Azoychka
Belgium Pounder -PNW Biggie Challenge
Big Zac - PNW Biggee Challenge
Black Cherry - a must have in my garden
Black From Tula
Bloody Butcher
Boloto
Brad's Black Heart
Brown Berry Cherry
Charlie's Green
Cuostralee

Donskoi - A favorite of mine
Gary O'Sena

Principe Borghese
Rutger's
Sandulo Moldovan

Whew!

Today was a beautiful day so I spent 5 hours weeding and getting my plots ready for planting. I planted my Walla Walla and Red Onions today, too.

Started my kales, chards, mustard greens, pepper cress a week or so ago in flats.

I have garlic in the ground from the fall. Seeded my radishes a couple of weeks ago. I will be planting my other root veggies soon.

Still eating lettuce out of my garden that I planted and kept covered.

Pepper starts are coming along:

Bulgarian Carrot
Chervena Chuska
Chinese Five Color
Early Jalapeno

I will also be planting peas this weekend, beans and squash later. And probably more stuff!
