I do the same thing, but that's a lot different than starting tomatoes in May in the south. If you live in the south, it's probably too late to start tomatoes until the fall crop. Once night time temps rise to summer levels, the plants stop fruiting and will get sick much more easily. I would wait until late August or September to transplant. I start my seeds for fall in June.
