Tomato seed starting question
Quick question - are tomatoes easy to start from seed outdoors? I always buy transplants because I just suck at indoor seed starting. I ask because the other day I was putting my trellis support up for my cukes and noticed a volunteer tomato plant on the back side of my raised bed! It's growing nicely, and I am going to dig it up and give it to my mom (I have enough tomato plants). But, I'm wondering can I just direct sow the seeds and call it a day? If they grow that easily, what's the point of buying transplants!

Re: Tomato seed starting question
That makes sense. I just buy transplants and set them out in mid-April. (Our last frost date is April 15th.) I just set up a bed that is devoted to peppers and tomatoes. I could probably buy transplants and direct sow for a earlier and later yield.
Thanks Kastle! I figured you'd know the answer!
