I am also planning to plant some peppers and eggplants this weekend. Is it too late for that?

I ordered a few of those 7-gallon smart pots so I can transfer my tomato plants and plant peppers and eggplants in them.

Any advice is appreciated.

Good to see another garden hobbyist.

Where are you located. That will determine a great deal of what you can plant.

Also, I prefer SWC's for tomato's. They seem to need a ton of water later on in life. Here is a good method for making one: http://www.globalbuckets.org/

Look for what zone you are in, and then google "planting guide" or vegetable planting guide for that zone.

Looks like I can still do eggplants, peppers and carrots.
