And I did everything wrong!...
Last autumn we still had some tomato plants that sprung up in the compost pile that were still granting us their fruits. It was a cherry-tomato like fruit from some hybrid we tried or the failed Million Bell plant that wound up in the compost. They were really good…thought I’d save some seeds. Immediately went to NewHendoLib’s tutorial on seed saving.
Started good…then stuff happened and the seeds were forgotten about…checked in on them and thought I’d left them in the water too long…whew, they were mostly ok…laid out to dry…again…stuff on the homestead needed doing…forgot them. When remembered the seeds looked like a whole-grain communion host.
I kept them…why?… 
Well here they are…
Ready for the greenhouse…
The Basil cloning is still coming along…we’re companion planting basil with various other veggies.
Speaking of the others…here’s the starts of various peppers and some roma tomatoes. Potatoes have been planted in the greenhouse already along with the cabbage.
Next Wednesday the low is forecast to be 33, lowest temp for a while…greenhouse should be safe.
Could this be the second year in a row frost may not be a big concern? The plots will thicken…with veggies.
Tomorrow is my wife’s birthday…how many guys would gift their spouse of 52 years a wheelbarrow full of custom mixed soil…and have her ecstatic over her present?
My compost pile awaits…

Potatoes from your own dirt are next.
That’s the next crop going in…May first.
In AZ, things are a bit out of control right now. I bought this little $5 tomato plant 2 months ago and now it's pretty much taken over. It's loaded with blossoms and ripening tomatoes. The mammoth sunflowers are providing afternoon shade and will be a tasty treat for our rosy faced lovebirds. I just hope the birds will leave the tomatoes alone.
At the 44th parallel we have to wait a little…ground temperature is about 50 in some areas. Beautiful raised bed.
was butternut squash…huge fruits…about 5 pounds each. Dehydrated most.
well not so much a garage as the indoor grow room.
The tutorials are pinned at the top of the Gardening forum.
NewHendoLib is the host. He is a very accomplished gardener. The first link is to the seed saving tutorial, the second is the seed starting one.
Before the last name change his name was…NRaleighLiberal…same guy. Tons of info.

we eat them. 
They’re like little trees.
You're well on your way!
Sometimes volunteer plants are the best. 
Thanks, 2na. Yes volunteers are the most fun.
Move delayed? Plans are hard to make when the ground is constantly shifting.
I was lucky one year and caught the seeds at harvest. Tons of them. Grew with them for years…not so much luck lately.
I've seen so many social media posts declaring, "You're doing it wrong!"
I thought it was directed at me. Now I know it was all about you!
Happy growing season, good sir!
It will be a great outdoor growing season…looking forward to this year.
