As the rest of the USA is winding down its vegetable gardens, we Southerners are just getting started. Last year I had the best organic tomatoes I’ve ever had. So I’m doing it again this year – only bigger and better.  These seedlings you see in the photo are 3 days from planting! Welcome to Miami’s heat, sun and humidity. This climate really helps speed the germination process. The trick then is keeping the plants from frying in the tropical sun. The seedlings will be transplanted soon to larger cells and then a few weeks own the road, they will planted in humongous pots and placed along my backyard driveway.  It’s the perfect place for them, with the ideal amount of sun and easy access to the garden hose. I’ll have my first harvest around Christmas time.
