Well, since I have too many tomaotes to count, I have decided to plant some earlier then normal here in Colorado.  The green house still has the big potted plants, but I took a few of the smaller potted tomates and planted them outside this weekend.

Outside Tomato Garden

I went out to the greenhouse on Easter and snapped a couple pictures of my tomatoes, as they are getting much bigger (and a bit out of control).

Here are some I have transplanted (again) into 3 gallon pots.  I am hoping they will live in these until they hit the ground mid May to early June (I live in Colorado):

3 Gallon Tomatoes in Green House

Here are all the ones still in the 6 inch pots that need to be transplanted.  I call it my greenhouse wall of tomatoes:

Last night Cat and I planted a couple inside boxes for some near term veggies:

Planter Box - New Crop

• Kale
• Spinach
• Carrots
• Radishes

These are in the grow room, under lights on 18 hours a day.  This is the same room my new seedling boxes are in.

I just planted more seeds for the 2010 Colorado garden season:

• Pumpkin
• Acorn Squash
• Butternut Squash
• Watermelon
• Cantaloupe
• Slicing Cucumbers
• Aji Dulce Peppers
• Shepherd Bell Peppers
• Jalapeno
• Broccoli
• Eggplant

Will try to post again when the seeds are up and moving to their pots.

Well, I have lots of capacity to grow this year, so have ordered and already received my heirloom certified organic seeds from Gary Ibsen’s Tomato Fest.

This year, I am planting the following varieties:

The also gave me a free sample of Giant Syrian , (image) so am anxious to try that out as well.

I just added water to my seed bed, and hope to get the seeds down tonight.  Will try to keep you all posted!
