I always go a little crazy on the seed starting. But this year got out of hand, but at least it wasn't totally me. The kids found some cherry tomato seeds that they wanted to plant and then I decided last minute to try Opalka. I was using seeds from last year so I put extra in each tray in case germination wasn't the best. So instead of 24 plants I was planning...........I think I have about 100 roma so far, 20 cherry, and 24 opalka lol!

....It wasn't so funny as I started repotting them tonight though. I am completely out of room and will have to forgo the grow lights and pray a sunny window does the trick. On the upside, I have several people that are going to try SFG this year and I have promised them plenty of plants to get them started. Just call me Johnny Tomato Seed.

I was in your boat not too long ago. I put several cases of mine under a hoop because I was out of room under the lights. A bunch of voles (field mice) had a feast, and now I only have twice as many as I need.

LOL and I thought I was bad getting 3-4 plants for every 1 that I wanted! I posted on my FB wall and got some friends to take some of them.
