I am a balcony gardener in Chicago and have 25 varieties planned and way too many seedlings 😂 last year had about 17 varieties and it was doable (balconies are very large) just a lot of watering. Started 17 varieties by seed and the others were picked up at various stores because I couldn’t help myself. Anyone else have no self control???

I have about 25 plants started and I don’t even like tomatoes! There’s just something about growing them 🤣 Definitely don’t have room for it all either
Yeah, you have way too few plants. That’s the only problem I see here.
No, you have a tomato opportunity!
Yes but peppers lol tomatoes I don’t go as crazy
Any community gardens near you?

Yes, absolutely none for me. I was looking at seeds today and thinking about planting some cold tolerant ones now so they’d be ready to take my romas place in a few months.
I promised myself that this year, I wouldn’t grow as many tomatoes as I have been. My balcony is tiny, and I would like to have room to actually sit out there in the summer.
It worked… Kind of. I was going to have just two, but I ended up with four. But that’s better than the eight I had last year. Right?
That is a good problem to have
I have 17 varieties this year…lol
Yeah… the tomatoes always sneak up on me, haha.
