70° F, sunshine, wow. And it so happens that it’s planting day for my main batch of tomato and pepper seedlings.
This year’s varieties from saved seed:
Moskovitch
Cherokee Purple
German Johnson
Mortgage Lifter
New to me:
Druzba (I love weird names)
Olpalka (I love weird names)
As well as Jet Star (a hybrid, planted earlier) and Amish Paste.
Everything’s ready, seeds out, pots full, labels made…
And while it was dirty anyway, figured I’d up-pot my experimental pruned pepper seedling. Nice root system, ready to sprawl…
Then out to the perfect day. Winter? Pfft. I don’t even remember winter (except for those still-frozen pipes). It was time to finally finish the never-ending chicken pen.
And it’s done.
Even varmint-proofed the ventilation system….
Pfft .. You are so funny! Love that coup .. And I’m a big fan of Cherokee toms .. Delicious even if mine got blight this year! Wow what about that root system! Show off 😀

I remember you mentioning the blight Julie. That’s a real shame! But I guess you have to take what nature gives. Blight puts a real damper on things. I know.

Thank you Sarhn! I just hope it’s not the envy of all the raccoons in the neighborhood 🙂

Dan it doesn’t matter if it is the envy of all the critters in the neighbourhood as they will be forced to watch from afar – they are not getting in. 🙂
