PUT A HOLE IN THE BUCKET, DEAR LIZA

So from the beginning of my gardening days, I knew I needed holes in the bottom of my planters. However, I failed to use this knowledge when I decided to sprout my own tomato plants. I sprouted them in one of those "sprouters" for lack of a better word. It has about 72+ compartments to start your seeds. I then carefully separated my plants and put them into plastic and foam drinking cups, of which I had a TON of thanks to Sams Club and parties. Thinking they wouldn't be in these cups long, I never put the holes in the bottom of them...... BAD MOVE!! With all of the rain we've had, if I am not ON TOP of them, I find myself dumping out the cups. Hopefully tomorrow the rain holds off enough for me to get them into the ground!!!
