Hi Dawn... I put a few of my brassica's in a fornight ago straight from the greenhouse (unheated) and they are doing great  :)
I did put some 6" plastic collars round the just to protect from the wind and they are coming along fine... I guess I'm getting the same weather as you being a fairly close  neighbour... like Yabb.. i also have spares at the ready just in case... :D

I live in blackpool, we tend to be windier but warmer than most areas around us. To be fair my brassica bed is in a "green house" ( more like a poly tunnel with netting for sides ) which raises the temps a tad, but that often seems to be to their detriment, I think it's to hot for them under there but the covers won't be coming off until the dahlias are planted ( last week in may ) as they're *really* not frost hardy

As I said though, I have plenty more seedlings to follow these if it all goes t*ts up so I'm a tad less cautious than most ;)

Only a small green house for you the Yabba  :tongue2:

*edit to add*
This is the best photo I have to show what our "greenhouse" currently looks like ( brassica bed is the one at bottom right of photo, complete with leeks in trays :tongue2: .... half to be planted yet eh? ;) )

Thanks
Kris

The rest of the space gets wasted on flowers though :mad:

"this them now...the ruler is 15cm long...are they ready?"

They look the same size as mine, which I planted out last weekend (and I made a note in my diary that they could have gone out a week earlier).

Should I start my brassicas today in the unheated greenhouse ?
