Looking great! Which determinate tomato are you trying out? Last year I grew Chico III and Viva. Pretty true determinates and I was pretty impressed with the results.

bush early girl and bush beefsteak

Starting some peppers for a friend. Hope they all germ.

started these 1/9...will move to garden inside wall-o-waters 2/13...left to right...cukes / jalapenos (barely up) / Porters

What's a good rule of thumb for the date with the wall o waters?

no rule of thumb...i get the seeds up and put the plants in the W-O-W as soon as they get true leaves and roots established...most of the time, the maters are growing out the top when i take'm off and freezes are over

Ok, thanks. I've got some tomato seedlings about ready now. You harden them off any prior to putting in the WOW or just plant them straight in?

this time of year with the cool / cold weather, i won't...the W O W makes it perty warm in there...make sure the W O W makes a tee-pee perty tight at the top...cold weather for a long period has frozen mine before after i opened up the top, but i've seen the tubes frozen half way down with the top tight and no damage...it's perty amazing

Thank you sir.

greenen. I have a 3 pack of WOW that i'm not using. If you can use and want them PM me your address and I'll ship them to you.

Derek thanks for the great gesture and I appreciate it but I bought some last year and used them based on y'all using them and I'm good to go but I truly appreciate the offer.

coliflower in the tube and amending beds .English pea's , more cabbage planted today,more brussel sprouts and broccoli going in tommorow

Crapy my TX Legends are looking good. Planted on Jan 4th and today pics. I did buy some Ammonium Sulfate per your and their recs and applied some 2 weeks ago and will reapply soon. I planted grocery garlic on the outside edges and it's coming up good. Not expecting a lot out of the garlic as discussed earlier but I'll update the results.

looking great for only 3 weeks growth !!

Well , I was off-line for about a year (needed a break) . Just got back and headed to the bunker .

Think I'll stay here for a while .

This week I'll be planting red and white onion sets , Buttercrunch lettuce , Bok Choi , Collards , Turnips , Radishes, etc .
(Plant radish around your squash-they deter squash borers.)

Probably won't be growing the mega-hot peppers this year since I'm getting older and losing my heat tolerance .Guess I'll have to settle for a couple of habaneros .

Hope y'all have a good garden this year .
