Can you add me to the list please Fizz:-)
All my seeds have now started growing. How big are people letting them get before planting them out? I guess it depends on the size of the pot they are in as seedlings?

Wait till the first set of true leaves is a good rule of thumb

Oh, that's for potting onto a bigger pot. Planting out, it depends on the weather. Speaking of which, it just started raining torrentially here and I'm not at home and my ickle plants are outside *frets*

I've just planted my first three out. They've been hardening off outside during the day for about a week, and back inside overnight.

Hope yours are ok, Fleecy.

can you add me in please (didn't realise there was an actual list). Mine might not be the tallest, although I have managed to pot on one russian giant, but the others might be very pretty...
