Any reason not to start chitting them now?

Edit: Sorry, I'll rephrase that!

I would start chitting them now :)

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

Yes, might be too cold. Must be frost free, other than that the cooler it is the slower they will chit.

Bit of a fag to chit at home and them move the, full, trays to the lottie I expect?
