Default advice needed for a beginner gardener

(Frogleg) wrote in message ...

Just wait 'til you encounter "last frost date" and "seed thinly (or
thickly)" Others have answered your questions quite nicely. Most
beginning veg gardeners start out with a tomato plant or 2. Very
rewarding to taste the difference between home-grown and supermarket
fruit. I never brought a carrot to maturity. The little 'uns are *so*
tasty. I "thin" 'til they're all gone! Tomatoes, peppers, and beans
are easy with plenty of web info. Herbs are very rewarding,
particularly the perennials. Although fresh basil is a great treat.
You're in for a good time, f'r sure. :-)


hi,

i saw a tomato plant sold in my local natural food stores and i was
really tempted to get them. the tomato plant has a couple of fruits at
the bottom of the stem. if i do get them, what do i do?

thanks!
