Nesa,
The watering needs to be consistent too. average 1" per week. I didn't
have good luck with tomatoes in containers - are they draining good?
Did you use a regular soil because it can pack solid and not give the
roots air.
How soon before we get to plant outside again? Well, snow was up to my
knees 'til we started a thaw cycle last week, but more is on it's way
Monday. I am curled up inside dreaming with my catalogs. Seed starting
indoors will be in March/April, can't plant tomatoes/peppers outside til
the end of May. Peas and Lettuce can go out in April.
