We have had some crazy weather here. I transplanted 6 plants that were beginning to get their first true leafs. a cold front moved in and have been at a standstill for a week. True leafs are small and neon yellow. Is there a way to boost them? or just yank them and plant my back ups?
We had highs in the low 60s and nights got in the 40s and rained

soil temps aren't high enough is my guess. I still have cables turned on under mine.

I've got 14 back ups. Should I just rip them up and replant?

soil needs to warm up to hatch the maggots, or apply a good systemic like merit and plant the back ups. good luck

Don't pull them. build yourself some cold frames until the weather warms up.
