We are in prime Spring planting time, and it's a good idea to get your vegetable transplants in your garden.
Now that we are past the average last freeze of the season, you can start putting your vegetable transplants in the ground.
Now is the time to get your transplants in the ground, so you can harvest them before the dreaded triple-digit heat. Even though, we are past the average last freeze, it can even freeze in April, so always cover your transplants if one occurs. You can plant transplants like peppers, cucumbers, summer squash, zucchini, green beans, okra and melons throughout the spring.
Make sure your area has plenty of sun. If there isn’t enough sun, your veggies may not produce well. Try watering your soil the day before to get it nice and moist before planting.Gently take the plants out of their pots and you can loosen the roots just a bit. Dig your hole only as deep as the transplant pot.Watering is super important. Texas veggie gardens need 1-2 inches of water each week. Keep each watering deep, which is better than frequent shallow watering.
Feel the soil to determine if it needs water. Your transplants’ harvest time should be around the beginning of May.Sarah Acosta is a weekend Good Morning San Antonio anchor and a general assignments reporter at KSAT12.
