🌸 Does your weather feel like “early gardening weather” right now? 🌸

I’m in British Columbia, Canada +10°C (50F) right now and my weather app is literally saying it’s good gardening weather… in early February 😳
That’s definitely not normal here.

🍅 Starting my micro-dwarf tomatoes!

4 of my many favorite varieties to grow in 2-gallon pots are:
Red Robin, Orange Hat, Canary Yellow, and Minibel Naine 🌱

These seeds came from two of my favorite seed companies (I also have a video sharing my Top 5 Seed Companies I Order From).

I’m starting these early for Mother’s Day–ready plants, but in zone 6b you can start them around March 17 for May transplanting.

I have two videos on micro-dwarf tomatoes:
• How to Grow Micro-Dwarf Tomatoes Indoors
• How to Transplant Micro-Dwarf Tomatoes Step by Step

Using my favorite Dollarama pots again—cheap, colorful, and perfect for small spaces.

❓️ What’s your favorite variety of micro-dwarf tomatoes?
