Hello from North Carolina!

Hi all! Greetings from Franklinton, NC!

While I have attempted to grow tomatoes in the past, this is my first season in a new home with enough sun to grow...well, much of anything. I have five varieties planted that I started from seed, and some peppers as well.

I have a lot of head knowledge of tomato growing I feel like, but very little practical knowledge. I can't say I'm excited to learn from my mistakes, but I'm ready for it. I certainly can't wait for that first tomato sandwich!

Welcome to the Junction. Best of everything to you and your crops.
Refrain from calculating the total number of poultry...before the process of incubation has fully materialized.

I've got Amish Paste, Black Cherry, Bloody Butcher, Brandywine Red, and Cherokee Purple. I've also got poblanos, serranos, and bull nosed bell peppers.

Well that's what I have right now, we are on day 1 of 2 nights of unexpected late frost, so we will see what I have at the end of it. :cry:
