Hi Vladimir,

Thank you for posting the pictures - things look quite interesting. You had mentioned earlier that the hot bed was not really much different than the cold bed - is that still the case? I certainly hope you get through the cold week without any issues. We have had a very long cold winter as well - so far, just one day out working in the garden, trying to turn frozen soil in my beds.

I planted my tomato seeds last week, and I have pretty small list of early determinates this year: Jagodka, Krainiy Sever, Saraev 0-33, Saraev Druzhnya, Sasha's Altai & Sophie's Choice. My primary focus for the season remains the 5 varieties of Stupické Polní Rané, and the CZ hybrids. Charmant F1, Gallant F1, Start S F1, Toro F1 & Uragan F1. I planted a couple of extra Uragan after you noted that your germination had not been too good. I cut back on Fourth of July F1 this year, replacing them with Start S F1 since it is similar, but imho, a superior tomato.
