    Good. They are fine. Best to plant them after they have started flowering anyway. Enjoy.

    Well done!

    Here's a good tip about replanting tomatoes:

    Plant it deep. Instead of planting it at the same depth that it was in the pot, plant it another 2 inches down. If there are any leaves at the base of the stem then just pinch them off. Keep up the good work!
