My first season, and I did all the wrong things with tomatoes: directly-sown (and too deeply) outdoors, when the nights still got into the 40s. I had all but given up, but then plants sprouted in late June. Today, I present to you my no-so-Early Girls. 🥲🍅❤️

Yay!
Nature usually finds a way.
Can you plant tomatoes too deep?
Congrats
congrats 🙂
Congratulations on your first tomatoes! Gardening is very much always a work in progress. Even longtime established gardeners are still making mistakes and learning new things. You learned a lot from growing these tomatoes. Apply that knowledge next season and you’ll get even better yields!
Just to give you an example, I’m a master gardener of over 15 years with a large vegetable and native garden. I’ve been growing garlic for over a decade, and I’ve never had to give it supplemental water here in central Virginia in zone 7B. Apparently with climate change this year I should have, as with our very dry spring, my garlic all dried up and died. Complete garlic crop failure. Feels bad man.
