Hi Twood

I've left my out for the last 2 nights and plan to plant them out tomorrow.   I've deleafed them a couple of times in their pots & I'd say mine are about 3-4 inches just make sure you don't let the soil dry out they are seriously thirsty plants.

Thanks for your reply Missey

Can I ask about the deleafing what do you do exactly?
Thanks

Transplanted mine about 3 weeks now and coming on no problems and of course I am just up the coast from you.

Hey Twood

You need to pull off leaves leaving 3-5 on the plant I assume its to encourage bulb growth.

I tend to leave the centre ones and remove the outer ones.  Hope this helps.  Its just really important to water water & water some more.  Good luck

thanks for the advice everyone.

i'll maybe put them out at the weekend I think it might be a bit cooler than tomorrow!. as they aren't massive I did wonder if I should wait but in the end they might be better in the ground.

Well fingers crossed
