I can spray them with vapor guard too.

thanks for the offer, much appreciated, i'll wait a few dayus and see how they come along, i can always head to the garden centers and pick some up, was only going to plant out 9 plants this year anyways----tom

Sorry to hear about this, but it looks like they will perk up with some care. All is not lost!

I think some of you guys but not all fail to realized just how far north and just how short the growing season is where Tom lives.
Almost as short as mine here in Texas as far as tomatoes are concerned.
Were cold weather hits him the heat kills me.

Just a thought and not trying to start a squabble.

So Worth, what you're saying is that in your opinion, he'd better get something in the ground pronto and not spend precious weeks babying undersized plants? That makes sense. Maybe he's best off to buy some and get them in ground now. Then he can tend the runts and if they make it in time, he can plant some of those out too.

Pretty much so.
I haven't lived in this part of Texas or even Texas all my life.
Plus I know what late planting of small plants can do even here, the plants live but the blossoms drop.
It is only recently that they have began selling plants at the right time of the year here to even get anything out of them.

I will be happy to send them if you let me know. Monday will be the soonest I can get to the post office now. which would probably be the best day to send them anyway.

thanks again for offer, but i'm ok, there are a few that look like they may make it, the rest i'll get from garden center, if my KARMA Pink doesnt make it i'll have to head to U.P. of mi. to taste them or maybe someone will send me some ripe ones! lol just kidding----tom
