Transplant Trouble
 

I seeded my fall plants as usual in starter pots with good mix.
After they came up strong I transplanted them around 5 inches tall.

The ones I planted in 5 gallon bucket with potting mix took off.
The ones I placed in my garden boxes with composted soil mix stunted.

Noting the stunted plants are in the same place that I had my spring plants that did great. So I am baffled why these transplants won't grow?

I have provided fertilizer and water.

All pics below were taken today and show trandplants occurred at same time.

Check the roots for galls. You may have root knot nematodes.

PH could be over the top too.
