Leggy, but ready to go

The long and the short of it

This morning I have planted what I call the “leggy garden”. I had 5 tomato plants that stayed on the indoor light table for 6-8 weeks. They got to be about 12 inches tall and kind of spindly. Their brothers, that I set outside in January, are more compact and darker green with more leaves. So, out in cobble stone corner I dug 5 deep holes and buried two thirds of each plant. I wonder if they will end up surpassing their more handsome siblings in time… Stay tuned.
