Now I only keep a few orchids & amaryllis indoors. <br /><br />Vegetable Heaven - Thats pretty good to have Brandywine flowering already. You should have a bumper crop this year.<br /><br />Tina - The warm season crops really like the hot light. I really can't wait to get them outside.<br /><br />Rosemary - Not sure what I am going to do with them all yet. Lots of canned tomato sauce that's for sure. <br /><br />Daphne - The tomatoes grow way to much to start so early. Although come June my mind may change if I have a lot of fruit set.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-46945853458523660652009-04-30T17:00:00.000-04:002009-04-30T17:00:00.000-04:00Oh and early tomato.

I agree that the tomatoes (the normal ones not the early one) really don't need a lot of time under the lights. I'm only going to give them four weeks next year.Daphnehttp://daphnesdandelions.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-49293037735639102742009-04-30T08:11:00.000-04:002009-04-30T08:11:00.000-04:00Impresive amaryllis, you will be very busy come Au...Impresive amaryllis, you will be very busy come August with all these tomatoes.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12126209675266816687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-80981197477469336712009-04-30T07:36:00.000-04:002009-04-30T07:36:00.000-04:00Outstanding amarylis and yes indeed-monster veggie...Outstanding amarylis and yes indeed-monster veggies.

We had a sharp frost towards the end of May last year. <br /><br />My toms in flower just now are Brandywine and my own tomato cross. I sowed them in February because I wanted a long season for them. Brandywine was a bit late for me last year, and with the home crossed ones, well I'm impatient to try them! All the other toms are still about 4" high and in 3" pots.Kathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12841961223771293021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-13959151138850585442009-04-30T00:36:00.000-04:002009-04-30T00:36:00.000-04:00Mr Early is looking fine!

I am great with outdoor plants - but manage to kill most indoor plants! Not sure what that is about - but it's the truth. So I will enjoy your triumph and am suitably impressed. <br /><br />Everything is looking good and the seedlings are all vibrant and healthy looking.

Most people hold off planting summer crops until May 24th which just happens to be a long weekend.<br /><br />If our night time temps warm up I may plant this one out early in the soil. If not I will keep it in the one gallon pot and cart it in & out.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359929230952480074.post-29191977812118140972009-04-29T23:43:00.000-04:002009-04-29T23:43:00.000-04:00Mister Early Tomato indeed!

So sad to be so intrigued about one little tomato's journey, but we are at the end of the tomato growing season here in Oz (excluding my indoor experiment) So i am living vicariously. What is the date again that you think he will fruit???PJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12210701278846436069noreply@blogger.com
