Indoor seed starting update: 2 weeks later So we are 2 weeks out from planting our seeds and will soon transfer these seedlings into the larger raised garden beds outside. For now all the plants are doing great and have all germinated and grown into very healthy looking herbs and vegetables. I plan on transplanting the tomatoes into cardboard toilet paper rolls as to let the stem of the tomato plants grow more roots - (the stem of a tomato will grow roots if you bury it, which make them stronger plants.) I plan on starting more seeds indoors about 2 weeks after planting these for successive crops. I will do this three times, which should let us eat well over a longer period of time.
