My first wintersown tomatoes were blown away in the wind. I re-sowed them after that, kind of late. They have sprouted but are still only a few inches tall. My husband started to plant them a few days ago while I was planting flowers but we were, again, chased in by rain. Hopefully I'll get them in the ground this weekend. May 15 is always my target date for planting them so I'm late this year.

Our weather has been mostly cool, cloudy, and rainy. The heat and sunshine (sudden summer!) are to start today so I have to get the toms in the ground. Previous attempts at wintersowing tomatoes were tiny at planting time but with great roots and they took off fast when hot weather arrived. Hoping for the same result this year.
