Outdoor grow in UK - advice needed

i'd wait untill they finish being little seedlings, maybe 3 weeks, make sure the root structure is beefy enough and then the soil won't fall to pieces when your repotting the little bastards. maybe this will mean they dont grow quite as much untill that 3 weeks is up but next time maybe put them in the big pots straight away

Yo raggae, its up to you when you want to put em out really... depending on your circumstances. If you can have them under an indoor grow light for a couple of weeks thats probably the most ideal situation. I've got some autos out already, and we've had a pretty crappy week weather wise (cold) their growth has probably slowed a little due to it but they are fine really. You might want to try putting them outside during the day for a bit just to get them used to it and bring them in at night, wind is good for building up strong healthy stalks, whereas they might tend to stretch inside and have weaker stalks. You could also cut some clear pop bottles in half and place them over your seedlings to act as mini greenhouses. That will also keep them a bit warmer.

Hey Tank, thanks for your post - I've put them out now into bigger pots - I'll see what happens! Hopefully they'll be ok :-)
The mini greenhouse thing is a good idea - will look into that. Have you got a grow journal? I'd love to check it out!

Peace
