Had a cool wet week but its warming up again. Do these look hungry? The bed is mostly rich compost and i planted with some organic fertilizer in the hole but they seem to be yellow down low, especially the burleys. One izmir looks great, the other has been stalled out with dense slightly curled leaves. Is that phenotypic or is it missing something? Everything in pots got the same mix of soil and some organic fert in the hole too.

I think my plants are gonna be small. Started too early and didnt pot up when i probably should have. Already seeing buds forming on the Virginia plants. Should i knock off the bottom leaves now and are they worth keeping?

Spacing might be a bit tight on the right side but oh well. Should i pluck the yellowing and the leaves touching the ground?
