Well, small problem ... it was a little hotter than expected. I thought for sure I had cooked the seeds past viability. But alas, Mother Nature is more resilient than I thought.
These first seeds are Early Girl Tomatoes, but based on this success, I started another flat of seeds that include more Early Girl, a container variety of tomatoes, basil, onions, peppers, cilantro, basil, rosemary and parsley.
I didn't know cilantro only sprouts when in kept in the dark, so I replanted those. The tomatoes have all started to sprout, as has the basil and onion. No word on the others yet. I'm hopeful!
I'm looking forward to a summer of roasted tomatoes, salsa, sauce, salads and stuffed tomatoes. Please grow!

My room is an excellent greenhouse, apparently...
My very favorite part of gardening is planting the seeds and nursing the little sprouts.
Then comes the wretched weeding and watering....
