    Anyone sell their seedlings?

    I save all my containers to..Much to my husbands chagrin, I have them stacked in the garage....:P....Since your tomatoes are around a foot tall and in nice size containers, I would not sell for less than $2 dollars a-piece..JMHO..Good luck!

    Chris, Your doing a great job and everything is loking good. Glad you put another vent in..Keep keeping an eye on the temps inside as you dont want it to get to hot..Your cool weather crops will not do as well in hot heat, and little tomato seedlings, once up, will grow stronger and healthier...
