Starting Seeds for My Garden, Because Life Goes On
I may be preoccupied with coronavirus right now, but garden-planting time will come around whether I'm prepared or not. This year, I don't know if I'll be able to get out to stores to buy my tomato plants in time to plant (I plant them around April 15-20 under plastic covers), or if plants will even be available in abundance in my area. There are too many unknowns at this point. So, I found a packet of tomato seeds from 3 years ago, tucked in my seed stash.
They may have lost some viability, but I believe that some of the seeds will germinate. I planted several seeds in each cell of this 6-pack. I am hoping for 4 to 6 healthy plants. Planting seeds this late means the plants will be smaller, but I'm hoping I'll make up for that with more plants. (I planted 3 large commercially-grown plants last year.)
Life does go on.
