Transplanting

The seedlings have germinated and are growing beautifully. The tomatoes had gotten so tall that they outgrew the cart and had to be moved to a volunteer's greenhouse. Today is transplanting day. Our master gardener volunteers Chris & Nancy are coming to work with a classroom of 3rd graders to transfer the plants from their 4-cell pack to individual 4" pots.

Again we use the buckets of potting soil and in the excitement, everyone forgets to transfer the labels to the new pots. Now how will we know what we have? We've got trays of "mystery tomatoes" and peppers. Hmmm
