Default Time to plant!

So my tomato seedlings are up and growing strong with no extra heat but still in doors, I start early every year as if I start them off in a few weeks time the garden centres start to stock plants far superior than mine...and I cant be having that lol

The only other two seeds I've sown are my caster bean plant that are around ten inches high and my brugmansia some pure yellow and an orange variety that are yet to make an appearance.

I tried to start some castor beans seeds a couple springs ago but none came up
I collected them from a plant nearby with the permission of the owner in the fall
I remember my dad growing a castor bean at our old house
I will try again at some point

and I know what you mean by those nursery centre tomato starts !

Both plants are amazing tropicals that require full sun and tropical warmth for them to grow to their full potential.
