They are getting quite big in the Greenhouse.

Might be worth taking them out of the greenhouse and start hardening them off outside.  The recent warm weather might not last though, so don't be fooled into thinking that we've seen the back end of winter.  There's usually a last gasp when you least expect it - blustery, windy conditions can be just as bad as a late May frost

I agree, days like this can lull you into a false sense of security and you think it's OK to sow/plant early.

Then - Wham!

Wipeout!

It can be a problem holding back plants that are ready to go out but too early - they can get very leggy or rootbound then not grow on very well when transplanted.
It may be worth planting out now but covering with fleece. A few years ago I had squash ready to early and planted out then covered with a fleece tent - they did really well and tent was removed a few weeks later

I'm planting my squashes out next weekend. I've been warming up the soil & will use a cloche.

I planted the beans out last year on May 1st & had a great earlier crop.

Experianced people on our plot think we're past the last frost comparing yearly dates.

All depends where you are.

Pot on to bigger pots?

PUP!
