A couple more tips.
Set transplants in pots, use potting mix, makes the pots lighter.
For the summer, dig a hole for the pot, insert pot in the ground, with
the top of the pot an inch or two above the soil line,
This keeps the roots a little cooler, and you won't need to water as
often, also keeps a few of the creepy crawlers out.
Then when summer is done, just pull the pot out of the ground and rinse
it off, this saves transplant shock.
