Grow Getters & Mad Potters (Gardening Thread)

Some of the tomato starts I transplanted are wilting Hopefully it’s just from the heat, but a few are doing amazing!

Oh, also, I have sandwiched the seeds in layers of wet paper towel in a ziploc bag and have put the whole thing in a drawer to keep it dark. I'll report back on how many of what sprouted and how many did not this weekend when I take them out and look them over.

I found in the past that old pill bottles worked better than a Ziploc bag. Maybe just a freak thing, but thought I'd mention it.

I was mowing the grass I believe it was a yellow jacket. I put a salve on it but I think cutting off my big toe would feel better!

Interesting. Wonder why? Either way, this is a full paper towel so I doubt it would fit in a pill bottle.

Plastic storage containers work really good too! I use them all the time

Now, I do want to get a bead organizer to keep seeds properly in the future. Number the lids and keep a cross reference as to what is in which container. Then you just dump the entire packet into the container and add the info from the seed pack onto the cross reference sheet and google anything that isn't on the packet (some of them are amazingly unhelpful packets)

Our harvest today... I ate all the tomatoes I have a celadon laying quail which I’m super happy about. I have been putting them in the incubator every day I get them.

Anyone else eat tomatoes like they are going out of style?

I believe I ate 25 grape tomatoes and 2 Roma’s yesterday! I oven roasted them in balsamic.

Mine went from the garden to the pan. Then to my mouth I’m collecting some this week to give away and donate.
