I have lacked the energy to do much so everything is either not getting done or as I am slowly gaining energy some things are getting done late.
The last 3 days I have been getting my tomato seeds planted into starters. That is about a month late so I dumped most mid season varieties and tried to stick with early season. I still ended up with 18 varieties in the seed starters.
Indeterminate
1. Black Cherry - early/mid brown cherry
2. Zluta Kytice- mid season multiflora yellow
3. Large Barred Boar - early/mid brown green stripes
Determinate
1. Melon Ball - white regular leaf midseason
2. Dwarf Artic Rose - 60 days seeds back
3. Fuzzy Wuzzy - dwarf bi color fuzzy early
4. Utyonok - orange dwarf early
5. Puck - red -determinate 55 days
6. Northern Light - red determinate 55 days
7. Silvery Fir Tree - red carrot leaf early
8. Cherokee Tiger Black - purple green stripes chartreuse foliage
9. Lucinda - green on green strip carrot leaf
10. Big Hill - bi color big flowers
These two varieties were selected out of Big Boy and Better Boy, by a TomatoJunction member.
1. Teddy Steak
2. Teddy Globe
Hanging Basket Tomatoes
1. Pendulina Orange
2. Shimofuri
3. Ladyfingers
I also got some Thai Lavender Frog Egg eggplant seeds and some flower seeds but still have some open spaces I need to fill up...
We got our onions and potatoes about 2 weeks ago as well as a sunchokes and horseradish roots for growing. Stuck the horseradish in a pot and hope it is fine there. The sunchoke roots went outside in planters and yep blasted squirrels dug them up and munched on them. So no more sunchokes for me... The horseradish is inside.
Today I planted some of the onions spacing some for green onions and some for bulbs. I still have about 20 onions to plant soon but ran out of get up and go.
The potatoes are sitting in the light chitting but will probably need to go in the ground fairly soon.
So that is the start of the garden season here.
