Tomato Seedlings

It’s still too cold outside to move seedlings out, so they currently crowd the windowsill in the kitchen, soaking up all the warm sunny rays. As of yet they are still small and rather manageable. We plan to get a polytunnel, but for the time being, it’s nice to have the minor jungle crowding all the sunny sills.

As I only tried to grow Portuguese tomatoes last year, and we had a miserable September with hardly any heat at all, I’ve selected both Siberian and Irish breeds to try this year. I figure they might be better able to handle the Irish summer, and I’ll just have to hold off hope for the Portuguese ones until we have a warmer more systematic setup. I’ve definitely got a hunger for fresh garden tomatoes! Grow on, grow strong, little seedlings!
