Marti, your sprouts are looking good! How soon can you put them outside in the ground?
Ted, that is interesting about the UV rays--I hadn't thought about that but since I've already bought the thing, I am going to give it a try. It's too soon for me to put the tomato plant in the container, though. I will probably get it planted about the middle of April--depending on the weather. This week we are having beautiful weather but that could change.
Here is a photo I took today at one of the parks here. It has nothing to do with tomatoes but it will give you an idea of where we are, weatherwise, as far as Spring is concerned.
