I’ve got baby tomato and pepper seedlings going. Finally.

I hope to have enough tomatoes to can sauce/paste.

I have several tomato plantings going.

Planting an eggplant and more tomatoes, tomorrow.

If the tomato plants survive (lol) and produce....I’ll be doing some canning, myself.

I love fresh tomatoes!

I found onion and cilantro seeds, too...so, I can make salsa, if all goes well.

Glad your seedlings are going.

Yay tomatoes!

Our local nursery had some “grafted” varieties — there is a nasty form of blight in our region. I don’t know how many people have tried them or with what success. I know that strong rootstock helps and that volunteer plants (even if non-grafted) do better than transplants in fighting it.
