When are you planning on planting your tomatoes? I was hoping to plant first week of May, but it still seems to cold. This is my first year growing, so I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

Assuming you'll be planting in the ground, what's the soil temperature where you'll be planting them?

How cold are your overnight temps at this point?

www.wunderground.com predicts the overnight low temps for the next week and a half (well, more or less; there's a lot of temperature variety in these mountains).

Avg. High: 60-65F
Avg Low: 45-50F

Soil Temp: 45-50F
