New Plantings...Seeds

I have two ready planters so I went ahead and am trying some seeds.

In one...Marketmore 76 and teh Arkansas Little Leaf cucumbers.

In the other...Sugar Baby watermelon and Hales Best melon.

We'll see what happens.

Tomatoes....finally after 105 days...

One week ago, the tomatoes turned red. Or at least pink. It was the Husky Red and Bush Early Girl. That makes 105 DAYS. So much for the 60 day window. I don't know if the cold was an issue or not.

Also... the tomatoes still haven't fully ripened. They are still a little hard but my wife keeps picking them. So far the fruit is around 2 to 3 inches for both varieties and we have gotten around 10 fruit so far.

I also put down 1/3 cup epson salts and 1/8 of miracle grow today.
