Tomatoes - 2

I'm really excited about this post because I wasn't sure if I'd ever get to make it. After I got my tomato plants, I watered them and they all just started drooping. I wasn't sure if it was because they were to cold in the window or because of to much watering.

I posted in a local group, got a quick answer (it was way to much water) and some additional advice to help my plants out and now we have this: 

That's at least double, maybe even triple, the size the plants were just 6 days ago when I took pictures last. It blew my mind and is the exact reason I wanted to document my plants growth. I hadn't really thought they'd grown much until I took a look at the pictures I'd done before. :)

You probably noticed that my tomato plant is in a small styrafoam cup. Part of the advice I recieved was to transplant the tomatoes into a larger container and farther up closer to the bottom leaves to get them more stability. Boy did it help a ton! I got the cup idea after watching a pepper transplanting video from The Rusty Garden Blog (that guy clearly knows what he's doing so I thought it a trick worth following).

Going by what he said, I should be able to keep my tomatoes in these containers until it's safe to transplant them outside, which is just another 2-3 weeks away! I can't wait. And I'll of course continue to document growth each week until then.
