Here's a link to a pretty informative site..... www.tomatogardeningtips.com/Tomatoes are one thing I buy starts of....not enough room in the house to start everything so I tend to just start a few melons (then more about 6 wks later outside for prolonged harvest), broccoli, peas & lettuces.

Set by south window if possible.If seedlings lean toward the sun rotate and they will lean the other way straighten themselves out. Put in a flat and put water in the flat so the water comes in through the bottom. Harden them.Before transplanting set out a few hours each day. Starting from seed is fun and very rewarding.

Ok I saw these advertized for some time now and was wondering do they realy work? They are tomato planters that you hang upside down and they say you get great mators from them. I don't have much room around the house for planting regular tomato plants so any input on these things would be great. Thanks

Bearslayer I think those are a new product. A local grocery store has them and I think I'm going to give it a shot.

They do look kinda of neat and I think I will do the same. For the money I guess ya can't go wrong. Just hope they produce some good juicey mators! LOL
