will you trim the root ball before you plunk them into the ground?
I'll have to do something. I'm guessing I can only take ten percent off, including tugging at the side wall.
Sympathies for those with snow and not in the southern hemisphere.

I think my bell peppers are lost. It's been over two weeks and nothing has come up. I think I'll try planting a few more later this week now that it will be consistently warmer.
I planted a flat of snow peas and snap peas last Wednesday, and them suckers poked their leetle green snouts out of the potting soil by this morning. Got to put them out in the sunshine for a few hours, and they were just chlorophylling to their precious little hearts' content

I finally got a really good day to begin organizing the veg garden. We are at least three weeks behind any previous year I've lived here, so this summer is going to be a struggle, at best. In ordinary years I already have stuff in the raised beds. This April was like January, snowy and cold. The beds still have ice under the top soil layer, so nothing can be planted in them. I've started a lot of stuff in pots and cell packs, we'll see.
But I'm going to grow a hell of a lot of snow peas and snap peas, which do well in our northern clime, and which never go to waste.
Of amusing interest here is, among my snap pea starts, one turned out to be an albino. Came up all white, no chlorophyll, and therefore destined for a short life.
So tonight, I ate it in a soup (snap pea sprouts are excellent).

I live in Iowa and our weather seems to be the same as yours, we're expecting a freeze tonight and by this time next week the high 80's to low 90's.
