I put my plants in the dirt 5 days ago and they got a little burnt but still seemed to be ok. How long until I can see some actual growth usually. Im wondering because maybe I should replant but these are my best seeds so I dont want to jump the gun..Thanks in advance.

Give them a little more time...If you start over you may further delay progress. I have seen vines defoilaged by hail and look like the have been run through a lawn mower. Two weeks later they are back to normal.

Thanks Shannon Im just hoping to get home from work and see some new leaves growing but nothing yet. Im thinking ill give them to this weekend and then replace them with back up plants. This is the first year I actually strted plants indoors and im just not having good luck at all. Thanks for the reply

Transplant shock and probably needed a little more time hardening off before those first full days outside. I'm sure that georgia sun is tough on young plants.

Alexsdad yeah I probally should of hardened them off a little longer and they days I set them in the dirt we had aquite a heat spell. I think theyll do alright though I sure dont want to lose them. Im just keeping my fingers crossed and what ever else I can cross.
