Justin,

How did your celery turn out? Thanks to you, I saw this post early in the season enough that I started my own seed right about when you did. It was a great transplant in the house. As long as I kept it water and the lights right down on it, it seemed to stay manageable and healthy.

I planted them out oh I don't remember when, probably early-mid June. They are now large. Very large. I didn't hill them, to help blanch out the stems and bring the foilage up higher on them. I just wasn't fond of doing that much extra work with them. I got a good wack of em if you can see. Please excuse the cruddy photos, I was getting eaten alive.

Now I'm trying to hurry and eat things out of the freezer as these puppies are coming up and going in there! I saw someone took off extra leaves, dehydrated them and made celery salt with them. Sounds like a great idea.
