Hi all, While we're on the subject of length of time to harvest, could someone please explain how this works? This is an ongoing discussion between my boyfriend and me. A package of radishes for example, which are planted directly in the garden, say 20-30 days. A package of tomatoes, peppers or anything meant for transplant say 80-100 days (for example). Now I KNOW this means from transplant but how do I prove it with some documentation? If the seedlings are grown for 60 days before transplanting, we're NOT going to have mature fruit 20 days later. Help me with some documentation please! I've gone through all my gardening books trying to prove my point and am looking like a fool here :) Thanks for all your help. I've been on this list since late 1995 and have benefitted immensely. Nancy
