Transplanting the Tomatoes


Well the tomatoes have been growing into nice seedlings for about 4 weeks and today I am transplanting into larger containers. These may or may not be their final container. I put 3 seedlings of tomatoes into each container. Grow little tomatoes, grow!!!! When transplanting tomatoes they can be put into the ground up to the first leave, burying most of the stem of the plant. The corner of my living room keeps filling up with plants.

Today I planted sweet peas in containers as well. I am going to try and grow them, vine them up the side of our deck. I can hardly wait for the smell of sweeet peas. I am so excited to see what happens with the vining. I have never done this before. I am planning that it will be beautiful, smell wonderful and allow for more privacy on our deck in our condo.

Cucumbers were planted today as well. Upside down containers for these guys this year with cucumbers vining down to the deck floor. This is new as well. My husband bought me a tomatoe upside down growing container and I thought I would try a vine plant instead of tomatoes.
So here is to some new ideas. Spring is for newness and creativity. Excited to let it grow this year and see what happens.
What new ideas do you have for the season? Do share!!!!
