Around three weeks after receiving your plants, when they are well grown and their root systems have filled the pots; all varieties will be ready for planting out in a greenhouse, conservatory or polytunnel. This should be about the middle of May and, at this stage, tomatoes should be 15-20cm (6-8in) tall, with the first flowers just starting to open. For our range of pepper plants, we have nurtured your plants for 4 months, so that you receive large, bushy 9cm potted plants ready for potting on or planting out straight away.
To avoid a build up of pests and diseases, it is best to avoid using greenhouse borders if they have grown these types of plants for two or more years previously, unless the soil can be sterilised or changed. Cucumbers should be planted two to a gro-bag or singly in 25cm (10in) pots. Read more
