Or perhaps donate some to an elementary school that could grow them with students. I dunno...216 seedlings...that's a lot of sauce.
RobinD said:Donating to a school or a community garden is a great idea! Toms are easy to grow as seedlings.....they get leggy though.....
RobinD said:That's what I have always done, too....not starting any this year though...just doing some annuals like scabious & anchusa....
RobinD said:Tomato cages are great....I keep using old wooden & metal stakes, & tying up the plants 3-4 times! Then a heavy rain comes, & they are all on the ground....
