Since I start my tomatoes as seeds under lights early I ordered a bunch of varieties yesterday. I shopped around and bought from fedco which seemed to be the best deal. I have a small greenhouse I am going to do 2 plants super early using a 100 watt bulb. April has been very iffy the last few years cold and rainy. I must admit to a craving for SUN GOLD Tomatoes. Have you ever had one of those orange sun touched sweet orange quarter sized gifts from God? (Yeah I love them). My main crop will be in big pots in front of the house; the wife loves them too she walks by picks a few and pops them into her mouth. The scream summertime. There will be cherry and grape tomatoes as well and a couple slicers ... Can any say caprese salad?
I am also nuts for lettuce - easy to grow and great on the plate. When the wife saw the fedco order she said "remember your knee - you'll need to downsize the garden". I have other plans.
New Yukon gold potatoes lightly fried in butter with eggs... Sweet Moses!
Tomatoes anyone have a favorite?
