Are your night time temperatures up around 10C yet?

If not I wouldn't even think about it, they'll go blue and just stop growing.

Another month probably for me.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Even if the nightime temp for the next fortnight was 10 degrees, i would still not put them out. Things like wind chills and such like all have a big effect on toms. I would leave it until the end of may.

According to metcheck website... (lets hope they get it wrong again)  :lol:

Next weeks night time temps where I am is forecast to be freezing and below! Mixed with the strong winds, will "feel like" -8 on one of the nights!! Also snow showers between 9th & 12th may!! And yet, it's been lovely today, wee bit breezy but really warm sunshine  :wacko:
