I'm not really sure how soon I should plant tomato seeds, but Saturday seemed like a good enough day to try it. The seeds I had ordered from Seed Savers Exchange arrived a week ago. I planted 24 seeds of each of the three varieties: Italian Heirloom, Hungarian Heart, and John Baer. The number 24 isn't magic, I just had 9 8-packs of peat pots and three cookie sheets to put them on.
I haven't a clue how each of these varieties will actually do. They are all heirloom indeterminate. I don't think I will have room for 72 plants. I plan on giving some away. All may not sprout. I just feel it's just time to get started. That's all I know.
