Fair warning. If you get that catalog you run the risk of ending up with a few dozen or so of many many different types of tomatoes. Ask me how I know, lol.

Getting your tomatoes as far along as you can possibly get them without them going woody gives you the ability to shorten the days on many short term varieties.

Tall order you're asking but it can be done.

Good luck.

Bright full spectrum light as close to the sprouts as you can get them. Don't move higher until touching. Tall spindly is a sign of reaching for inadequate light. You can toughen them up with a breeze as well. A small fan suffices.
