I planted tomatoes, 2 eggplants, and 1 double tomatillo today. The tomato bed is getting carrots planted with them this year, and the other bed will be filled out with some basil. I have one cherry tomato to put in the ground, and maybe another tomatillo next to it and finish out that row with Kentucky blue pole beans. Peppers will go out soon but no hurry since they have a little bit of extra space now indoors. Saw the first spouts of cucumbers and melons today too.

@firephoto@mastodon.social Does "double" mean some sort of hybrid that can self-pollinate, or alternately, just a strange way of saying you planted two? Cause Tomatillos cannot self-pollinate, you need two generally. But maybe that's the "double" part.

@jpaskaruk@growers.social Yes, I allowed two plants to remain in those pots with the idea that if the recipient gets one I don't have to give them two for pollination.
