How big are the plants and have they been hardened off outside already?
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

they are a fair size now, about 5 inches at a guess, no i havent hardened them off yet although the door and the windows have been open on the greenhouse for about 4 weeks so im half way there, how long do i harden them off before they can stay out in their final position ?

I'd stick them outside for a week then pop them in their final positions.

After being in the greenhouse the leaves will be soft. Harden them off where they do not get too much sun or you may scorch the leaves.
