I've got a couple of dozen cabbage seedlings in 4-packs under my grow
lights. The have one set of true leaves. Even with plenty of light, they
are getting spindly due to the heat. How early can I set them out in SE
Minnesota? I usually only grow hot weather crops, so I'm not sure about
stuff that can take some cold. I also want to sow some peas, but it might
be a little early still, I dunno. Thanks.

Best regards,
Bob

There is cabbage and cabbage. My cabbages (red ball, collard, and
January King) are all noted for their tolerance of cold. I put them
out a month ago, as soon as the bed thawed. They have taken a few
nights at 25F, and I covered them twice with plastic sheets, in one
case it got down to 16F. They are all fine, and I won't cover them
again.
