Was fortunate to receive a few Estler's seeds from Edie last fall. Am treating them like gold, and planted two seeds a few days ago. Hopefully we'll have a plant soon.

That one is one my preliminary list for 2021. Most likely will make the cut. Only two moths until seed starting time.

We have ignition. The first seed has germinated. Total of 3 seeds planted. I started these a couple of weeks early, in case it took a while to get a viable seed. The rest of the tomatoes will be started Jan 1.

SOB over 3 months here before seed starting for outside plants... of course the swap seeds will be here and all my plans will be tossed out the window anyway right?

So, you are one of those winter sowers? ;)

:D Actually, well, maybe a winter sower, but technically it's still fall 😮 Starting tomatoes here late Dec and early Jan allows me to start taking them outside in Feb on warm days. They really don't get planted out permanently until March. March - early June is the best growing time here. Summer is a struggle.
