Question to all that have planted grafted tomatoes:
do you plant it as deep as cotyledon leafs? Does anyone plants it deeper?
Here in NJ the weather sometimes prevents me from planting tomatoes early enough
and they overgrow, so I have to plant it deeper and at an angle.
Any of you tried to do that with grafted tomatoes?
thanks
Ella
P.S. if I start grafting experiment now, I may end up having bigger seedlings by mid May than needed.
this post makes me want to start my plants now and it is a bit early...
