Go ahead ... rub it in. My tomato plants just got in the ground (I helped them lol) wednesday of this week. We had frost the night before. Fortunately all my plants were under glass in my make shift cold frames.

Ohio weather is a nightmare. Warm 70’s and everything needs to be pulled out of cold frames or else plants scorch. 8 hours later and it is 29 degrees. Our Frost free date is May 11th. Where is global warming when you need it???

Enjoy your sandwhich ... I personally enjoy a good heirloom like rutgers, while standing in front of the plant I picked it from. Yes, I carry a salt shaker in my overall’s plier pocket. Yummmmm .... life is good.

Our tomatoes are going in tomorrow. The plan is to get the bulk of our garden in by tomorrow. We planted potatoes, peas, cucumbers, & kohlrabi after work this week. The ground has been too wet with frequent rains to do much before now. And we had a freeze warning on Monday night. At least we’ve got terrific weather today and tomorrow.
