Got my tomatoes done today

13 years ago

I planted 10 each of 3 varieties - all patio type tomatoes that can be grown in containers and now except for some seeds someone is sending me, I am done winter sowing. I wound up just short of 300. Most of the stuff I sowed in January is up and growing. By some miracle I had the exact number of containers saved that I actually needed for the tomatoes. Now I need to get busy cleaning up the flower beds so they'll be ready when all these babies are ready to go into the ground.

yummy.... I love garden fresh tomatoes. That's actually what got me started with gardening in the first place.
Today, we have mud. All the snow from last week is melting away at an amazing rate. We've got 60s temps today (not normally that high yet). It's too early to start on my garden beds, but I have a dog so I will be cleaning up the yard today. At least it gets me outside.
Have fun cleaning your garden beds. I always enjoy it. Everything is so full of promise at the beginning of Spring.
I would definitely prefer to clean out the beds than clean up after the dog.
