Please add me to the ping list.

I am officially a gardener as of 7/11 when I planted my first veggie seeds in white 5 gal. buckets with drain holes, a bottom layer of mulch and potting soil.

This weekend I will be re potting the cukes and zucchinis that are already three inches high. I chose my species and planting times according to my local extension office and have just been amazed by the results.

Here in Jax, we've been getting rain every afternoon so I haven't had to do any watering, but the one Celebrity tomato plant I bought is looking a little pale and I think it's getting too much water. Any advice?

Is you Celebrity tomato also in a container? If so it may need to be fertilized more often.
