I bought some established tomatoes from a garden center back in April and put them in gallon containers. One of them was an Early Girl. When the plants got about 2 feet tall I planted them in my double 5gallon buckets the first of May.
Those ‘Early Girls’ sure live up to their name! :)
My tomatoes are still in cottage cheese containers (started them all from seed) and they are about 18” and stocky. They have been well loved!
They are going in the ground this coming Sunday. Peppers, too. Broccoli and Kale and Cabbages are already in.
Then I can fill in with flowers. I have two more types of beans to plant, but the soil just FINALLY hit 70 degrees the other day.
Zone 5 growing is always a piece-meal operation it seems!
