Seedlings- plant out now in tubs?

[MaybeDoctor]

I have some seedlings of Busy lizzie, candytuft and cosmos. About 5 - 7 cm.

Should I get these out now into my containers or pot them on? I am probably away during half term but could get them watered while away.

Thanks

You can never be sure of the frost until May has gone. Depending how many you have you could try some and keep the others in reserve.
Monty, on Fridays GW, was just potting his into larger pots for the time being.

Don't plant the cosmos out yet, it will sulk if you do and just sit there, waiting for the night temp to be much warmer. I would pot it on, wait until it grows to about 20 cms (pinch out the tops if it gets leggy to encourage bushier shape) then leave outside day time for a week before planting out. It'll be better for it and you'll have a stronger plant.

Thanks, will do!
