This is the time of year when a man’s fancy turns to …
Tomatoes.
Last year I waited too long to start my seedlings, but this year I was ready. I start with peat disks in early February, and then later transplant them into larger pots when the roots begin to fill the peat.
Sarah and David helped me plant this batch of seedlings. Loop
Hopefully by July or maybe August I will have a dozen healthy, tomato-producing plants. It is always a race against the Fall, with tomatoes in Washington. They need sunshine, and we don’t get enough until August. Then hopefully we get a crop in September, before the cold nights of October put an end to the growing season.
I’ll keep you posted.

Yay! I love tomatoes. Hope you have a great crop this year.
Echo Kathy’s cheer! Have you tried playing music to your plants? I hear they especially like violins.
