    I'd harden them off for a week outside, then plant them out. I't highly unlikely we'll have any frost now, unless your'e way up north. Then you can plant them in the ground.

    I put my runner beans out to harden off, not for the first time, on Tuesday, the leaves went white, sign of cold, I wont be planting out until the 1st June. By then they will be about 2ft high and able to take it.

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.
