Garden Log 3/6/24

Potted on my little tomato seedlings — remember when you replant tomatoes, bury the stems up to the first set of leaves. Tomatoes are wacky — they’ll develop new roots all up the buried stems, making for a bigger, stronger plant.

I have SO many tomatoes. And I ordered more from the Tomato Lady. In my defense, I planted something like 10 of her tomatoes last year, and it wasn’t enough to keep up with my family’s demand for tomatoes. Maybe this year! But I might have to sacrifice some flowers to get enough sun — gah!

Hopefully not; I’m going to try planting some of the cherry tomatoes in the front parkway garden, which bakes in sun. Just need to have pretty supports, so they look appropriately decorative. 🙂

Plan to also try some of the smaller varieties in the porch hanging baskets. The key is managing to keep them watered, which is always a challenge for me…well, we’ll see.
