Around here I plant my tomatoes out in the garden early.I put them out by the very end of April already so they get a nice early start, Used to plant around May 5th but last few years going earlier and earlier.

Claudia, I have found that Early Girl is really not so early in my garden. But just a great all round tomato so I plant them.

This year I did try some really extra early types of tomatoes. Beaverlodge Slicer and Beaverlodge Plum. Nothing memorable able either one. I tried Oregon Spring, nothing to get excited about. And I tried Glacier. Really, really early tomatoes on that one and not so bad tasting. Early tomatoes on all of them but the darn things are so small, not too much bigger than a cherry tomato type.
