Okay, so now the bigger of the tomato seedlings have a nice, new home, and we've got some empty space on the shelf. Well, what would we do about that, except plant more!!
The next batch is made up of a couple of different veggies; no more just boring tomatoes, here! We started cucumbers, zucchini, green onions, and basil. We are about 4 weeks out from the outdoors-planting date, so that is the time frame to get all of these going. As well, you can see in the picture below, we have switched back to using the toliet paper rolls, but with a slight change; we cut them in half and use them that way. They are a lot easier to manage, and they don't have any mildew/mould/dampness problem that was happening with the bigger tubes. As well, we found them a lot easier to transplant than the full tube.
So, everything seemed to be going fine, until Thamara opened up the zucchini package, "What is this? These aren't zucchini seeds? They're way to big; they're more like pumpkin seeds!!" And, as time will tell, it looks like we are not going to be growing any zucchini, but rather a couple of pumpkins.....hmmm....
