Hi! Some advice please on what I should do with my newly sprouted autumn sowings in the greenhouse.
I sowed some sweet peas and broad beans in pots a couple of weeks ago.
They seem to be doing very nicely - perhaps too nicely, so now what?
Do I leave them in the unheated greenhouse which currently seems to reach a good temperature with the mild weather we're having and then worry about what happens when the colder weather arrives? Will they grow too fast and be spindly and unsuited to bedding out later (and when)?
Or do I put them into the garden and then worry about what the weather (or our voracious slugs) will do to them?
I don't have a cold frame but I could put a plastic greenhouse against the wall of the house and leave it open...
Any advice from you experts wil be gratefully received.
