Aren’t they ADORABLE?! These little guys have kept my spirits up the last few weeks. I can’t explain why they made me so happy either, they just did. It was so fun to get this all setup this year!
Than they developed into THESE:
Love Love LOVE it!
I had to be the bad guy and thin them out though. SOBS! It was a sad day for me and my little plants.
All is well and they are doing great. I am so excited because this is the FURTHEST I have ever gotten with starting tomatoes and peppers indoors. It’s absolutely wonderful and I am giddy with reaching a successful planting come May. My little plants now range from 1in to 3in tall! Usually I get the true leaves on the plant and then mold takes them over, they wilt or something else happens. I've never started tomatoes and peppers indoors yet that I have successfully moved to my garden. Beans (mistake, just plant them outside!), zuchs, cukes, etc I have been able to start and get in the garden though. So excited!

Exciting! The boys and I atarted a veggie garden last year. It didn't go so well. keep it up! :)
Wow! They look great! I hate thinning out too. Makes me feel so bad :( But think of how beautiful and big the others will get. :)
It's hard to "kill" (thin) isn't it after you've invested so much emotional energy in germination and growth!
Oh, but the babies left will thank you! Sometimes I have to get out some more containers and transplant those little babies, I just can't help it. ;-) If I can't find a place for them, I can usually find someone to take them!
Love it!

I usually have pretty good success with my own tomato seeds, but isn't thinning them terrible, I hate doing that, but I know it's best for them :)
