Let them get well rooted before washing the dirt off and they will have a better chance for survival. We tried to do some in class but I believe the watermelons damped off (looked like they had been pinched at the medium level) and the tomatoes leaves wilted, turned a brown color, and died. Any suggestions would be helpful. My name is Mike T Tesnohlidek and I teach ag. science in Nyssa, Oregon.
