Just came from my community garden plot [In Fairfax, Va.] Last saturday I transplanted 80 silverqueen corn plants that I had sprouted indoors... they survived the week and it is supposed to get real warm here for the next four days!

Dug up one red onion... not big but very tasty. I have a bed of 120, err, 119 red onions.

Going to take my tiny tomato and peppers out for some real sun in a few minutes. I am sprouting everything in a basement shower stall we don't use, using an incandescent grow light....have not tried this before!!??????

Good luck! Be sure and introduce those tomatoes and peppers to some filtered or indirect sun first. They might very well scorch if you go full sun at first. Silverqueen corn is great.
