Tomatoes Have Sprouted

Well 59 of the 96 heirloom tomato seeds I planted have come up. 16 of each type of seed we're planted the varieties are Cherokee Purple, Ben's Ivory Pear, Flame, Brandywine, Large Red Cherry, and Italian Roma.

In addition to the tomatoes, I have been adding earthworms into the soil where my potted tomatoes are growing, and I am starting to see worm castings around the base of my tomato plants. I also started pruning the tomato plants to allow better airflow, to eliminate powdery mildew, and to hopefully make bigger yummier fruits.
