The plants are in the ground

We are getting all of our tomato plants into the ground slowly but certainly. The wet month of May has been making it very difficult to plant anything but seaweed out there!
This last week was the first one without a tropical down pour. We still have a bunch of tomatoes all lined up waiting for homes, 56 have new places to live in the raised beds. We have room for maybe 20 more. Then it is on to the buckets. I will post pictures tomorrow of everything that we have done outside.

Kent is the muscles behind this endeavor. He has dug, hammered, raked, mixed, watered, tugged and planted. The rest of us just try to look good. He about killed himself on Saturday and Sunday, but he did move mountains and got a lot of stuff finished outside. If you asked why we haven't helped much let me just say one word "perfectionist". So I just try to support him. I sit outside and sacrifice myself to the mosquito gods.
We have learned a lot already this year. Like don't plant 400 tomato plants, skip the white current tomatoes all together. Peppers are not a big draw, but large slicing tomatoes are. Have a plan for wet weather. Radish must have sunlight, lettuce does great in the shade.
I have read and read and read about tomatoes, how to grow them, plant them, water them, prune them and how to talk to them.
