These were my tomatoes, sown in 16 oz. cups. I had a brick in there to weigh it down against the wind. Obviously it made no difference.
I dumped the soil from the maters in the compost bin. Of my 15 jugs, a few came out relatively unscathed (White echinacea, white liastris, yellow rud hirta, 2 alyssum, one snapdragon), a few I was able to restore pretty easily. Five were a complete mess. I had a jug FULL of tiny pensetmon smallii, which I really wanted. I tried to replant those microscopic seedlings, maybe a few will survive. Also lost dwarf snaps, dianthus albus. Was able to find and replant about half dozen teeny rud cherry brandy seedlings. Also a mess was platycodon- no loss there, I didn't have any sprouts. (Neal, I've WSown both traded and commercial seeds. I know they wintersow great for everyone but me.)
All said, not expecting much this year. I'll re-sow tomatoes when I can, I do have more seeds.
These were my tomatoes.
