My tomato season usually started in late February or early March. I used the fire stove to make my seeds germinate faster and later in April I kept my seedlings in an outdoor wooden greenhouse to make them grow faster. Past two years I’m not able to do this. I have air-conditioned heating in my apartment so no speedy germination and the spot where I had my greenhouse is now taken with stairs so I have nowhere to make my seedlings grow faster. That is why this year I started sowing much earlier than before. I’ve sown peppers 2 weeks ago. Some of them like Somborka and Buena mulata already germinated and I’m hoping the rest of them will start soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because of the longer germination, I decided to sow tomatoes this week. This year I’ve sown 20 tomato varieties, 6 of them are new varieties I didn’t have before. I didn’t bother to count the seeds this year. I decided to use more seeds and sow them in bigger containers and when I see how many I have I will transplant them to separate the seedlings.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

I used the same Genox disinfectant to spray the soil and seeds just to be on the safe side with the Pythium rot. <\/span><\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/div>\n

With the tomatoes, I’ve also sown another bunch of flower seeds. Most of them are annuals and need a longer time to germinate. Also, I’ve already started some early cabbages, kale, and Brussels sprouts. I need them to grow early to avoid problems with moisture and cold in October and November. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/div>\n

I’m hoping all of the seeds will start growing in the next 3 weeks. If everything starts growing in February I’ll have nice big seedlings for May.<\/span><\/div>\n
