any good source of seeds for tomatoes.

oups.com... any good source of seeds for tomatoes. How do I start things from seeds? Over the years, I've always gotten the best germination rates from Burpee seeds: www.burpee.com. My definition of "best" means I plant 12 seeds, and 11 grow. I've gotten less than wonderful results from Park, Thompson & Morgan and Harris. There are lots of other seeds companies, but I haven't tried others. As far as how you start things from scratch, I (and anyone else) would be doing you a huge disservice by explaining it. You should go to the library, find some books, and start reading. There are brief instructions on seed packets, but there's no way they can be fully informative. If you want a good book recommendation, especially for a beginner, go to www.powells.com, and get a used copy of "Crockett's Victory Garden". Each chapter represents one month of the growing season in Boston, and his advice is excellent. Ignore what he says about chemicals, though. He went WAY overboard. |
