Can anyone tell me if these dahlia seedlings are big enough to plant in the garden or should I put them in bigger pots and wait

    Nowhere near big enough Debra, pot them up into 4” pots and see how the go, you don’t usually plant them out until June anyway, they will grow on nicely by then I would think.

    The slugs will have 
    a field day with them. Nice seedlings though well done

    Yes, another reason to get them big before planting out.

    Thank you for your help only just started to grow my own plants so I’m a bit impatient and unsure what I’m doing hopefully I’ll get better at it

    If you’re unsure just ask away on here ... we’ve all been beginners 😊
