Tom time!

Well the weather forecast was suggesting a burrow-bound day for me today, but instead it's gloriously sunny. I've been taking advantage of this meteorological good fortune by repotting my tomato seedlings, which were getting rather crowded in their seed trays.

They're now stretching their roots in a variety of recycled plant pots, and enjoying their first day outside (though for now they'll be brought back inside overnight and in inclement weather - the hardening-off of seedlings like tomatoes is a careful business).

You can see they're going flop a bit in this picture, having only just gone through the trauma of pricking out and potting up, but with a good watering-in they'll perk up again on no time.

I planted these in August, but it's not too late to still grow your toms from seed indoors. Check out my seed shop on Felt for seeds of my favourite tomato varieties!
