Too early. Too late.

Goodness me who on earth ever gets it...Just right?

Check it out. Loads of those  who last year did this or that but how often does any one dare post failure?

You could well be in time. Let us know how you get on.

By sowing later, your plants benefit from warmer temperatures and more hours of daylight. You should end up with healthier, stronger plants. The downside is you'll have to wait longer for your tomatoes.
