Back in February, I sowed all of the saved seeds, watered them, covered them, placed them on heat mats and hoped for the best.
Sure enough, 5 days later, the magic of germination was in full force.
6 weeks under flourescent light over heat mats with a rotating fan to provide some “wind” and we were rewarded with two trays full of very healthy seedlings. (On a side note, I am not primarily located in California right now, so good friends are graciously acting as my greenhouse and plant stewards between visits. I suspect that’s why the plants look so great this year.)
Since then, they’ve been transplanted to individual dixie cups and will be ready for distribution to fellow tomato lovers in 2-3 weeks.
So if you have an interest in home-grown tomatoes, let me know. I will be delivering tomato seedlings to all takers in the San Francisco Bay Area starting April 18th.
How nice is the growing tomatoes with in 5days the leaves are started to sprout it branches and 6weeks later it grown. Well the soil your using is a garden soil that are rich in minerals. I am interested to have it at home. Is there any seeds other than tomatoes?
