They transplant okay if they're just about 3 inches tall. If in doubt use
peat pots or cans with the bottom removed so you can shove the plant
through the can. If you have cutworms in your area, you could just leave
part of the can standing above the soil to protect your plant. I can't
figure out where you are by your address...Margaret L, in Idaho
