Plants went outide a little while back the day they did they got "drowned in dixie cups by rain" what luck!

Now I transplanted them into smartpots and yesterday I sprayed with Neem and put Mulch around-- Also been giving them Compost Tea

even with 100 degree weather the soil is moist after 24 hours - I believe I'm going to water every other day

Any tips - advice is good! Here is one that is in "trouble"

Watering every other day, isn't a bad thing, as long as the soil is nearly dry, but I'm guessing every 3rd or 4th day, would be closer to ideal. You want to wait til your soil is around 75% dry, before watering. I'd be careful with the feeding, as well, because those plants are pretty small, and have plenty of fresh soil to keep them happy, for now. I'd go with straght water(PH adjusted to about 6.5) for two weeks or so, before giving them anymore ferts. That's just me though..... :wink:
