KarenO’ 2021 tomatoes

Looking great, Karen! I cant imagine all that potting up you had to do with so many seedlings. They look very healthy!
This year the seedlings in nurseries are more than sad... barely a set of true leaves and they are on the shelves for sale... not just one store. I think there's a big shortage of quality seedlings. Yours will sell like crazy.

Thanks!
I’ve noticed some ghastly seedlings as well.
You know, I actually really enjoy Potting up. I set myself up with everything I need, sit in the shade and listen to music and pot away. The only thing I find to be a bit of a drag is writing out labels the rest of it once I get in a groove I can do it all day

Working to get everything planted out. Just dwarfs left so I’m getting there...

Will start sowing in Mid August this year. Those that went in at the end of July last year were just that bit to advanced for my liking last year. Thinking that August 15 will be the aim point from now on as a personal tribute to Dads mother who passed away late last year at age 103. August 15 was her birthday.

Would like to try Tundra if someone has a few spare seeds they could drop in a card.....

June went from cold to hot in a hot minute this year
Hopefully will set some blooms in this hot spell.
The plants are growing fast now but I’m a fair way away from a big ripe tomato. By the End of July I would think if all goes well. Cherries before that.
I’m starting to see some big beauties posted by friends and I’m getting impatient

Highs of 42 broke records here but plants came through like champs. Weather looks good for growing for the next while which is great
