Those Little Suckers!

I fully planted the main tomato raised bed yesterday, and realized that some of those tomatoes had a little extra potential.  I trimmed off the suckers, and have been keeping them in moist soil.  If 25% of these make it, I wouldn't even need the tomato seeds to sprout.


Still alive after 24 hours... a good sign?

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed, and sacrificing lots of goat blood to make sure a few survive.  The two round pots contain the strongest volunteer tomatoes... no knowing what they'll turn into.

Now all that's left for the week is to plant the:  chard, calendula, cilantro, lettuce, nasturtium, red malibar spinach, sage, sunflower.  And replant kale, radish, turnip, beet, carrot, thyme.  And harvest the heck out of the kale that's starting to bolt.
