Big QUESTION.
I have 3 tomato plants from Walmart and a six pack of their sweet peppers, I feel lazy and want to put them in the ground tomorrow and while the temperatures are a couple of weeks cooler than perfect, they are acceptable with nights a little cooler than optimum.
MY QUESTION IS-—, if I feel nurturing enough to repot all of these into slightly bigger pots like I normally would to let them grow larger and healthier, and stronger before putting them into the ground, how long would I have to delay putting them into the ground, I’m impatient, I might be willing to give them two weeks but would being repotted and then only having 2 weeks to recover, be long enough, or should I just put them in the ground like I feel like doing?
What growing zone are you in?
I highly recommend putting them in larger pots. I use large tall cottage cheese containers with a few holes punched in the bottom. Add about 1/2 of good nutrient soil and put in your smaller plant. Add some soil around the edges. It will easily buy you another couple of weeks.
