So.
I transplanted a bunch of tomatoes and peppers in the ground outdoors today. Dirt was damp, seemed like a good time to do it. I also potted a couple starts of catnip and thyme. Seemed like a good time to do it.
I just went out on the deck to check on the potted starts, and birds were singing. In the dark. At 1 AM. Then I heard thunder to the south. Storm coming from a wrong direction. "Good" storms come from the west here. All other directions are "wrong", and bad, and blow shit up.
So I brought in what potted stuff I could, but left the 8 tobacco plants in pots out there. Nothing I can do for the tomatoes and peppers. they'll just have to toughen up, or die.
Bummer.
