Our kitchen table is slowly becoming over grown. We've got seedlings all over the place. Time to organize them a bit. In another week or 2 we'll put them outside. It's so warm already that most people already have their tomatoes and aubergines in the garden.
So currently there's 9 aubergines (snowy and regular purple ones), 2 cucumbers (with 3 more in the greenhouse), 2 squash, 1 courgette, 20 sweet-corn, 6 pumpkins (delicata, butternut squash, and orange), some cabbage and lettuce shoots, and finally 32 tomato plants (9 different kinds). Big parts of the garden are still empty, but the kitchen is pretty full. At least now we have some decent windows in the house. Our last apartment had the smallest window ever. It was almost depressing. But it's all good now. And it will be good to get all this stuff out of here and into the ground.

seedlings do have a way of taking over the whole house...it's been a cold spring here and i still have a dozen-ish things left to plant, so they're outstaying their welcome indoors. i like your tomato variety choices.
Thanks for your comment! Yeah, it did seem to get a bit full in our kitchen towards the end of March. Now we've got everything in the garden, so our seedling troubles are over. Good luck with planting!
