Temptation could be defined as the desire to do something wrong or unwise. Well, I must confess, given the early summer-like weather of late, I have been tempted to transplant my tomato, pepper, eggplant and other tender seedlings to the garden. However, what I lack in wisdom is overcome by what experience has taught me, and that is to be patient.
For it was back in 2009, if memory serves correctly, that I transplanted my tomato seedlings to the garden on May 25, Memorial Day. On the following morning, there was a touch of frost. Many areas escaped the light frost, but our garden sits at the bottom of a slope, which made matters worse since cold air settles in such low spots. As a consequence, all of my tomato seedlings became memorialized for their brief existence.
