How about that. Ours were left over seedlings that were either weak or damaged. They're all growing quite well now!

If you can...I do hope you don't have tornadoes!<br />If you can't leave the plants in the container they're in, just be sure to disturb the roots as little as possible, make sure they get plenty of water, and don't change the environment they're in very much. (Don't plop them down in full sun if they have had part shade.) You might even try slicing the sides of the container and removing as much of it as you can without disturbing the roots, then plant it all. My mother grows huge, wonderful tomatoes and she always adds a little composted soil (she makes her own by composting every vegetable scrap in her kitchen) in the bottom of each hole. She also mulches heavily on top by first layering about 6 to 8 layers of newspaper, then regular mulch over that. She has a drip irrigation on them. (She's really into organic gardening.)Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06755191961134444671noreply@blogger.com
