Sprouts!
...a few of the tomatoes came up today. I bought two kinds -- Better Boy and Beefsteak -- and will probably grow them in pots, even though bush-style tomatoes are probably better suited to container gardening.
I haven't had a tomato that didn't taste like wax for a couple of years now (save the one I paid, like, seven bucks for at a "farmer's market" the summer before last) so I figured I should just fuckin' grow some already. Apparently they do fine in pots as long as you provide them with adequate sunshine and drainage.
