well against my better judgement i put 5 outside for good today. partly becouse i needed the space for some autos and partly becouse these ones were stretching to much while all the rest have maintained short internode spacing. this is a good 2 weeks before ive ever planted outdoors for good. ill be able to cover if the need arrises. i put out two biddy earlies,two mangos,and one trainwreck. the weater has been great here but i do anticipate having to cover which will mean big loss of much needed sleep.ill have to get up an hour earlier before work to uncover. i hope i only have to once or twice. but here is some photos.

they look a little frazled right now the walking did them no good,but they shall come back if i baby them. so far they have been watered twice with earth juice grow and once with ej microblast. and the soil has good compost and possibly to much mexican bat guano in it. lets hope not. but now ive freed up some much needed space inside. ive been limited with space this year. the plants will be a month ols on the 6th-7th.

dug some more holes for some smaller beds today. they are going to be 4' x 2' foot maybe slightly larger i dug the holes 4' x 2' but the boards will be bigger around the edge. i made these smaller since im not as sure about the areas as my bigger ones so i decided to put several small ones with 2 plants each scattered around this old country road. the only worries are turkey hunters right now after that all should be good for the season. tomarrow ill have the boards up for these two then dig 2 more and fill them all this weekend.
