cabbage/Cauli/chard

[Reks]

Hi guys
I sowed cabbage/cauli/chard/peas seeds indoors less than a week ago and they have all germinated. Is it ok to move these to my small greenhouse (freestanding 4 tier covered with plastic greenhouse)? I live in Reading and the night time low temp for this week is 1 degree (tonight) to 7 and even 9 on one night.

Well put it this way - chard has germinated on my lottie over the past week - and it is not a million miles from you. I think it is worth doing with all except the peas and that will depend on whether they are early or main (smooth or wrinkled).

I'd put them all out, they'll only go leggy if you keep them inside.

Thanks Ladies!

As Alison says - turf 'em out into the blowaway greenhouse then! Specially as we are due to be up to 12 hours daylight on Thursday!

ALL my seedlings are now in an unheated greenhouse. I hardened them off every day last week and turfed them all out finally last night.

They are only coming back in if the night time temps are minuses. It is getting reasonably warm in the greenhouse in the daytime and thus it isn't getting too cold in there at night.

I'd never sow chard/beet/brassicas or peas indoors; the only things that get that privilege are toms or peppers. I'm hard like that!!!

I sow chard, brassicas and peas etc in the cold greenhouse in the first place. They cope really well and don't take too long to come through.
