I regret that I wasn't more diligent in my photo documentation, I took photos when I had the chance. I travel a great deal. Anyway, These are the photos I have of my growth progress so far.

The first 2 photos are of the root growth and top growth of a 4 inch transplant at the time that I placed them in the growing container. The plant was healthy, but the root system was scant and I thought this would make the test interesting. Even at this late stage in our season, I still managed to find a healthy young transplant for Sweet 100.

The second 2 photos are what awaited me when I got home last night. I decided my little baby was ready for "tomato corner" in my greenhouse, so I moved her in today.

The growth was such a surprise for me. I've never had a 4 inch transplant grow so quickly for me in the ground!
