What did you do in the garden today?

Victim of plant math too 🫣
 
When I was trimming weeds around the raised beds I saw that the baby Bok Choi is starting to bolt already. Time to pick them all and eat 'em. I'll feed the dozen seedlings I have started to the chickens since there's no sense wasting garden space on something that will immediately bolt. I'll plant Bok Choi in the fall from now on.

My poor hen is feeling really bad today, but the others sense it and have been staying close to her and talking in a way that sounds sad and sympathetic. :(
 
If you don't already know you can re-pot the tomatoes as deep as you want so they're no longer leggy in the new pots. The tomato stems will send out more roots when buried and supposedly make the plants stronger.
Yes I will need to do this at the weekend. Might see if some things can go outside now to free up space on the growing shelves. I have a second tray of tomato seedlings planted the same day which don't have this problem. My best guess is that the very large seedlings might have gotten over fertilized. We have one jug of plain water and another with a cap of liquid soluble fertilizer pre-mixed in. It's labeled but I might have grabbed the wrong one or my husband of the kids. These tomato seedlings weren't meant to have any fertilizer yet.
