I read I could speed up the hardening off process by putting the young veggies out on a cloudy over cast day for three days in a row. It was a perfect opportunity because the forecast was cloudy and light rain on Saturday, and cloudy on Monday and Tuesday. Saturday was a light rain, and cloudy day and they did very well, today ( Sunday) I worked, and of
course It cleared up this afternoon and sunburned some of the tomatoes. Now the forecast is clear and warm, 89 by Tuesday. I'm not starting over, so I moved them to a spot they will get mostly filtered light.
It seems like I
should cut off the badly burned leaves. The tomatoes are about 2' tall ( yes I started to soon and have repotted them twice now) and have a great
root system, so I'm pretty sure they will be ok.
What would you do? Thanks
