"stifles my ability to live at precisely the same time as it enables it."

Plus: list of stuff I have more-than-I-need for my garden, with The Final Tomato List

Tomatoes:
Gardener's delight: red cherry: 12 plants, keeping 2
Stupice: small earlyish red, tasty: 6 plants, keeping 2
Sungold: orange cherry, super prolific, very sweet: 14 plants, keeping 3
Longkeeper: big red with winter storage potential: 4 plants, keeping 3
Black Krim: black beefsteak: 10 plants, keeping 3
Viva italia: red paste tomato: 6 plants, keeping 1
Yellow brandywine: yellow beefsteak: 6 plants, keeping 3
Regular-leaf plant that grew from the yellow brandywine (which is a potato leaf plant) seeds: one plant, all mine
Jaune Flamme: orange-red smallish tomato: 4 plants, keeping 2 (juggler labelled it as 'flambe')
Prudens purple: purple globe: 7 plants, keeping 3
Speckled roman: roma-shaped red-yellow bicolour with sparse foliage cover: 6 plants, keeping 2
Black plum - 1
Silvery fir tree - 1
Druzba - 1
Gren zebra - 1 but I may take a cutting for 2
Altai black - 1
Cherokee purple - 1
Unlabelled pot with 2 potato-leaf and 1 regular-leaf, so either stupice or yrllow brandywine plus a cross-pollination or dropped seed (like with brandywine, se above)

My okra seeds are up -- I've planted six so far of each kind. Cukes are up too. Watering is picking up with this weather.

This is my seed list. Some of it I'll part with easily, some a little less so:
okra- mammoth spineless and red velvet
onions- this was a red storage variety
cuke - satsuki midori - good variety
ground cherry - aunt molly's don'e seem to be germinating, poha we'll give a try
basil - tons of genovese
lettuce - red romaine, red looseleaf, mixed
orach
mustard greens
swiss chard - couple of varieties
parsley (late to sow this)
kale - this was a cross between red kale and lacinato
kohlrabi
beets
gai lan
calendula
edible chrysanthemum (highly recommended salad green, it's so yummy)
sprouting broccoli
arugula

I won't be growing much in the way of beets or gai lan or broccoli till fall cause I just won't have the space. I likely won't be growing the ionions because 1) they take up space for a long time and 2) onions aren't really good for me. Sad.

I WILL be breeding rats in the next week. It'll look like this:
Mona x Sekai-chi = agouti roans and roan carriers
Camille x Bullet = russian blues and silvers
Cocoa x Quartzie or Rizzo = minky havana-y lilac-y yumminess
Princess x Quartzie or ? (sky?) = lilac & other mink-based yummies
Mikaela x Sky = dumbo black and russian blues maybe? We never did get Jackson figured for colour

Princess, Cocoa, and Mona might be a little later on.

I have begun to suspect that you are the reincarnation of Gregor Mendel, trying to get everything he missed the last time through life in a female body.

Can I have the Longkeeper? I seem to be at a loss for large tomatoes, and just read last night that some 'Longkeepers' will hold for months inside, and really have no room, but, you know.
