Time for the First Transplants!

The cole crop seedlings have their first true leaves!  Today they were transplanted to new containers that are deeper and bigger, giving more room for their roots!  It was great to get a little dirt under the fingernails and smell the moist soil.  I was pleased with the root growth we have and hope that the new containers will give them a boost as the leaves continue to grow.  I had one loss of the Blue Wind Broccoli and loss of one of the Romanesca Veronica leaves.  I'm hopeful the Romanesca recovers but the Broccoli is more in doubt.  Tomorrow I hope to start the pepper seedlings with the tomatoes not too far behind!
