More onions...

Bruce brought me 2 144 cell trays (the kind that they get flower starts in) today and they are now fully planted with Mustang onion seeds from High Mowing Seeds.

Peppers are coming up!

Both the 50 pack and the first 288 cell plug tray I planted have several pepper plants poking through the soil. The Jimmy Nardello's are the rock stars so far followed closely by the early Jalapeno. There's a few odd ones of other varieties too.

(Some) Tomatoes planted

I just planted 288 tomatoes! 72 each of:
  • Amish Paste
  • Rutgers
  • Gilbertie Paste
  • Medford
I'm not done yet - these are the later season (75-85 days overall) varieties. More coming soon!

I don't plan on planting 288 late season tomato plants. Any I don't plant will get sold at Stillmeadow Gardens where my starts are going to live for a while.
