why are you all planting tomatoes now? have you checked the calendar?

Every year, I see people rushing to plant tomatoes in March, and I just have to laugh. Last spring, I did the same thing. I was so excited, I ignored the chilly nights. My poor seedlings looked so sad by April—tiny, shivering, and not growing at all. Now, I always check the last frost date before planting anything. Instead of jumping the gun, I start seeds indoors and give them a sunny window. My plants are stronger and happier when I finally move them outside. Plus, I get to enjoy the process without stressing about surprise cold snaps. Trust me, waiting a bit makes all the difference. My garden is thriving, and I get to brag about my big, juicy tomatoes all summer long. #gardeningtips #springgarden #plantingseason #growyourown #Gardening
