I should know this - but I don't.



Are these supposed to go into the ground now?

Re: HELP! In Ground WHEN??

questions.

what are they? bottom looks like nasturtiums...or broccoli?

and more importantly....where do you live? If its anywhere near where i am...NO...do not put them in the ground yet. bottom seedlings look small yet anyway.

Loops - I can't recall this sec what they are.<span style="font-size: 8pt"> <span style="font-style: italic"> (but none are broccoli tho)</span></span>

When I get in, I'll let you know.

NJ.

I'm not understanding If I'm supposed to wait until they're a certain size or what - what's the criteria for transplanting into the ground ...

Anyway - will let you know what they are when I get in.

Thanks mama!

Re: HELP! In Ground WHEN??

well here's the general rule. Plant your seedlings outdoors when ALL danger of frost has passed. Here, that's Memorial day usually, although everything is incredibly early up here this year.

also...your seedlings should be hardened off a bit before you throw them in the ground. In other words, put them out in the day, but bring them in a night...for several days to a week. That will toughen up the stems so they won't be shocked by the wind and cooler temps out there.

your seedlings should have at least their first set of TRUE leaves....thats usually the next set to come after the leaves you see there on the bottom pic.

i can't for the life of me tell what you have up there in the top trays though.

you could probably direct seed lettuce and spinach in your garden...and should have your peas planted by now if you're into peas. those plants, in particular, don't care for hot hot sun...they're cold weather crops.

See - I didn't ever know anything about that hardened off bit.
