Aawww... HAIL!

Dang it--we were at 93 degrees today, and then it turned nasty, and then we got a heavy hail, marble-sized, for a good 5-10 minutes. It hit three hours ago, and we still have hail piled up everywhere. EVERYTHING is defoliated, and I had already planted out ALL of my tomatoes & peppers. TOOK ME ALL WEEK TO PLANT THEM OUT, and five minutes to destroy them. I had ONE plant under a basket because it had gotten sunburned yesterday... I think we'll have ancho peppers and nothing else.
Okay, so the plants were pretty small--some of them with as few as 2-6 true leaves. Any chance that what remains--they look like sticks--will grow new leaves, or should I head over to HD tomorrow and get some un-organic, non-heirloom, "gee I wish this was a different kind of tomato/pepper" plants tomorrow? I hear they're having a pretty good sale...
GRR, I was so excited about my garden this year!!!
