have you guys put your tomatoes outside yet? I was wondering whether I might be able to this weekend or do you think it may be too early yet?

Where are you? It's still too cold here in the East Midlands. I wouldn't put mine out before June here, but if you're on the south coast or something it might be okay. The temperature shouldn't go below 10 degrees or they'll suffer.

No I would'nt risk it yet even here on the south coast, not unless you can give them some protection and even then the nights can still be quite chilly. We could still have a frost too.
Another couple of weeks and maybe.

Last year we had a frost in the 3rd week of May....I know because I had just put out my runners!and the Isle of Wight is usually quite protected because of the strip of wet stuff around us,so keep 'em in for a while yet.
