Hi, I have a Dill 875 seedling that the true leaves are just starting to grow but the roots are showing at the bottom sides of the peat pot. It's still a little cool but the patch is ready, I can heat the cold frame but I'm not using cables in the soil. Should I go ahead a set it out? I've got more seedlings coming for my second hill which is not ready yet,( some great seeds Matt Mongeon sent me) so I will have others to plant if the first one fails. Thanks Amy

Try building a small greenhouse over your mounds and let the sun warm them for a few days before you plant and they should be ok .I'm in NW Pa. and have had my tomatoes in a cold frame for 2 weeks and they are going nuts have been had my mineral pits covered with plastic for 3 days and soil temp is68% and getting warmer will plant in a week
