I planted mine out yesterday but I live a wee bit further south than you.

Personally I am not worrying about frosts now but I am keeping an eye on the weather reports just in case

Hi, We popped our courgettes out last Tuesday in big tubs, they're doing fab.

I put mine in yesterday but fleeced 'em which will remain on for the next few weeks means you get a much earlier crop and frost protection

I put mine out at the weekend, have got fleece at the ready just in case.
They look ok so far, have a small fruit on one plant.

I haven't started my courgettes yet but the gherkins have loads of flowers on so planted them out, go for it, you still have time to plant more

Mine were planted out on the 10th May.
I used to work in a helium gas factory, but I walked out, no one talks to me like that.

Sowed mine 10 days ago. Stuck em out in the nice weather though. They are now in the kitchen because I'm paranoid that it may rain whilst I am at work and a rogue snail/slug mightl come out and chomp them. They are still very diddy with just 2 leaves.
