What's The Earliest I Can Put Tomatoes Out?

[Mr FootOfDavros]

I've got one of these plastic grow houses which sits against the house wall and can be zipped shut initially.

Looking at my pictures from last year, they went out on May 7th. But the thing is, until last week, the spring here was amazing and they've shot up really fast - got a couple with the first trusses developing already.

Would I get away with them going out now? Don't think we're going to get any freezing overnights, forecast showing 4/5 degrees celsius minimum...

I know how it feels when I have a bunch of pretty plants growing and then hit with a frost or freeze. Its all depends on how many you can lose and still have to grow later. Don't take a chance if you only have a few; just wait until you know for sure. Keep us posted.
