Celery Seedling Advice Please

[Ananke]

Hi folks

My celery seedlings have been up for about a week now but are not ready to be pricked out into individual pots just yet.

They are on my window cill at home but I'd like to take them down to the plot, would they be ok in an unheated greenhouse or would that be too cold for them?

Thanks in advance

Too cold I think....ive had minus temps several times this week and your all the way up there!

[Ananke]

Thanks Scarlet. Wasn't sure how hardy they were. We're having lovely spring sunshine up here but no doubt it wont last for long.

I'd say don't risk it, they will just keel over if you shock them especially as you are so far north the chance of a cold frost/snow is still high.

No! I wouldn't risk it either! They are not very "Cold Hardy" and very fussy things to grow! Being a "Bog Plant" Need there feet in constant damp soil, which given to the cold elements, the chance of the soil in the pot it's in freezing is not the best plan!

But to be perfectly honest! I wouldn't sow till at least late March early Feb, so when they need moving on conditions are better!

Early "April! Ya Goon! Been a long day!

I sowed mine last weekend which is about normal but they'll stay in the conservatory until they get planted up individually. After that they'll go out in the cold greenhouse.

Thanks everyone, I'll keep them at home for now
