Notes

Sungold tomato. Transplanted from old QAPP plot after a couple months in the ground. Went through a shock period & then started to fruit. I'm amazed that it's survived! Surely would've been bigger if not uprooted at this stage, but it's flourishing now.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
