In The Garden - March 31

AKA Graduation Day!  lol.  Today, my little tomato plants moved into their new home in the garden.


Mike had tilled the bed last fall, so the only prep required was to rake it out smooth.  I removed the lower leaves on all the plants so I could plant them deeply.  The root systems looked great when I popped them out of the pots.  Looks like 12 weeks from seed to transplant is a good length of  time.


These two plants are the biggest of the bunch.  Not only were they taller, but their stems were much thicker than the others.  


And because this is Utah, Mike helped me set the walls o' water around all of them.  The weatherman is predicting rain mixed with snow for tonight and tomorrow.  O.o

Grow little tomato plants, grow!   We need lots of salsa and catsup!  lol.
