Hi All,
Two yeas in a row I have noticed this. When I
am transplanting my plants from the green house,
I put some organic bone meal down the hole. And
no transplant shock. They seem to be thriving!

I use a mixture of equal parts 13/13/13 fertilizer , crushed
eggshells and epsom salts for tomatoes and used it on my taters this
year . 2 tbsp per hole , mixed with the dirt in the bottom of the hole
so the roots don't get burned . I cut the E salts back to about a third
for everything else . This is the first year I've used eggshells ,
they're supposed to be a good source of calcium which is supposed to
prevent blossom end rot .
The vine stuff I planted a couple of days ago is doing OK now but Mom
Nature did me dirty on transplant day . It was supposed to be cloudy all
day and all the stinkin' clouds ran away and hid . Stuff wilted in the
hot hot sun , but I managed to keep the wee darlins' hydrated enough to
survive .
