Something's fishy

I am behind schedule with my seedlings (again). My Roma tomatoes have been growing their first true leaves for almost a week and I am supposed to feed them with half strength fertilizer. Luckily, my very good friends from Mississauga, Linda and Gerry, had given me some organic fertilizer the last time they came down for a visit. Shown here- see background- is the fish emulsion I used to feed these seedlings. And yes, it does smell like fish!


The bottom picture shows the 'Tiny Tim' cherry tomatoes. Note that the hand made newspaper pots are holding their shape and haven't self-composted yet. The taller containers are the "losers" Roll-up- the-Rim cups.
