Growing Transplants (With a Focus on Tomatoes)

Gardening Basics Series - Class 5

Every spring and fall gardeners search the stores for the right varieties of peppers and tomatoes. Often we settle for a poor selection of non-organic, expensive transplants. In this class, learn to grow transplants from seed with everything from a greenhouse you build to a light you can buy for less than $15.

Diane Norman is co-owner of the Arcadia Nursery & Farm. She grows and sells organic transplants and vegetables.
