I gave the kitchen an extra good cleaning, drank lots of coffee, suited up for some muddy tomato planting, and waited for a break in the rain. We had a beautiful rain all evening and into late morning. I could think of other jobs to do, but my purchased tomato starts are 5-6 times taller than their plastic pots and they REALLY needed to get into the ground. The rain let up and I grabbed my chance to head outside.
These leggy beauties won't suffer for being so top heavy. I dug deep, small holes, less than six inches in diameter, with my poacher's shovel (Transplanting Spade/Poachers Spade
I finished as the rain began again in earnest. No need to water those plants in, nature is doing the job for me!
In this bed, I planted all our eating tomatoes:
"Moskovich"
"Matt's Wild Cherry"
"Black Cherry"
"Mexican Midget"
"Jaune Flamme"
"Hillbilly Potato Leaf"
"Nyagous"
"Red Fig"
