Hurray! It's finally time to plant those tomato seeds!
I got a tip from one of my coworkers today. He said that he was planting his tomato seeds today in some disposable cups. I didn't have time to go to a different store other than Home Depot today, so I got the biodegradable 2 1/4" cups. They were $1.99 for a pack of 26 cups. That's not too bad and it seems like its better for the environment anyway, so I bought them. I also had some Jiffy peat moss expandable seed pod thingies. I'm not sure what they're called. I used them before and they work okay. I just wanted to use them up. I don't think they work any better than regular potting soil.
I planted some Super Sweet 100 cherry tomatoes, Jellybean cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, Yellow Jubilee tomatoes, Early Girl tomatoes, Purple Tomatillos, and Large Red Cherry tomatoes. I will let these grow under the indoor grow-bulb. My coworker will be growing his under a warm south facing window.
I bought a TON of seeds.... so I will probably start the 2nd round of seed plantings next week. I'll see how these ones do before I go on a planting spree.
