Started them on April 1, I would love to wait another couple weeks but I’m worried about them getting root bound. None of them have any flowers yet which is good. Night time temps are showing 10c (50f) and above for the next week. Day time temps are 20c (68f) and above. Soil temp is around 15c (59f) should I plant or wait?

It’s a me! Mario!
I personally would plant them if they’re hardened off
Plant! As long as you’re hardened off sufficiently. They can tolerate night time temps into the 40s as long as they are relatively healthy and it’s not sustained for several days in a row.
Why do you want to a wait a couple more weeks? Your night time temps look perfect for tomatoes. I doubt they’re root bound but you can pull the plant out to see how the roots are.
If you haven’t hardened off it’ll take 1-2 weeks to do so..
Plant them now!
Plant them! Nights are in the mid-high 40s where I am and the tomatoes I planted a week ago have grown so much compared to the ones still in their solo cups.
Such a proud tomato papa. Haha cheers and may your harvest be bountiful.
Hell yes!!
Dang those look great! How did you get them to grow so much in such little time? Or is it a secret 😉
Okay Mario !!!
Look at those thick stems!
And yes I would plant. As long as hardened off.
Just sowed mine. Frost should be over now.
Mamma Mia!
