Hi,

I currently have a glut of tomato seedlings in the sun lounge.

The last frosts are well gone, but the weather is very variable.

Jusr wondering if it would set the tomatoes back if I started moving them
outside.

Oh, and if you know someone who would like 50-60 (or even more) tomato
seedlings of various varieties.....

Cheers
Dave R

Are you sure? Here in Bristol area we havein the past had frosts in
first week of June. I don't feel safe till then. Meanwhile my tomato
plants go out by day and in at night. (no greenhouse)
Last year a neighbour put 2 doz tomato plants out on his allotment at
the end of May and went off on holiday. One night's frost killed the
lot!

I wait until late April before planting tomato seeds, they are then ready
for putting outdoors in early June. I see tomato plants (outdoor varieties)
for sale as early as March and wonder why.

Cripes, Mine have been out for the last week or so!! (NW London
suburbs)
Don't think we've had any frosts, but I think there might have been a
bit of hail during the week.. (
They are now sheltering under the bench to protect from any more hail.
They haven't died but there are little brown spots on the leaves. I am
guessing that's where they got a whack with a hailstone.....

Fingers crossed they are OK
