too big for the pots


OK.  I need some advice. My pumpkins are up; they are growing like wildfire,
and it looks like I won't get them planted for a week because of wet garden. 
Should I transplant them into bigger pots?  I started them in 4" peat pots,
and the roots are out the bottom as they emerge.  Or will they be OK in the 4"
pots?  Thanks for you help

cheers,
duchess of gladstone

Well.  Everything seems to be fine in the greenery department.  So we're
still
married.  It rained another 1/2" last night.  Will be days before the ground
is dried out now.

        Honey, can you smell 2-4-D in your greenhouse?

As I was transplanting tomato plants into larger containers, my husband
yelled
from around the corner, "Can you smell 2-4-D in your greenhouse?"  All my
bigger tomato plants are outside enjoying sunshine and 70+ temperatures at
10:30 this morning.  The two pumpkins that have emerged (yesterday and today)
 are in the greenhouse.  I took them out of the incubator (which is in the
house) and moved them to my little toy greenhouse.  When I said, "All my big
tomato plants are outside," the reply was, "Well, do you want this circle
driveway to grow up in grass and weeds?"

Remember this is the guy who loaded a gazillion pounds of liquid manure on my
pumpkin patch.
