The forecasts look good with heatwave for the next week, partly overcast day today and 40% chance of rain tomorrow. So,
...planted my first 5 -- one each Yellow Brandywine, Yellow Bell, Prudens Purple, Moskovich, and Sun Sugar Cherry (F2) in the more protected of the two tomato beds for this year.
I'll probably plant a few more tomorrow.

Nice going, Apple!
I want to know how you like your Yellow BW... I've had few seeds for couple of years, and never planted them, and looked so beautiful on the pictures!
You actually ahead of me on the main varieties Not sure how I got behind, but I guess all the "other things" around the house took priority.
I did check the forecast, looks like nothing below 45F at night until 24th, so planted few in the ground - extras (from container batch), Grubs Mystery Green (love those, and so early too), Siberian Pink Honey (should be very early oxheart), and our Lubasha (F5), the one we've been making sweet/tart preserves/jams from, been trying to stabilize it for few years now, and she has been identical in the past 2 generations, who knows, may have gotten lucky...
Bucket's (cut back on those too), only 6, Grubs Mystery Green, Taxi, Early Treat, Noire de Crimee, Danko and another Lubasha F5...
Happy growing to all and plentiful harvests!!!
Regards,
D
