I have some plants that sprouted on 4/19/05, I put them in one gallon ice cream container and the first adult leaves are coming out on some and second leaves are out on others. Are these ok to put out or should i trash them and start over?

i wouldnt throw em out they will do allright root bound means that the roots are balled up in the bottom of youre planting pot most plants including ags will overcome this it usually slows em down some but they will grow! grow em big thats my take for what its worth! burrhead

It depends on your ambitions for the year...going all-out full-bore competition grow-em or blowem big? or just growing a monster....if the plants look good and your happy grow them....they are less than 2 wks old in a big pot...........G
