first attempt at gardening. this year i aim to improve. its getting kinda
nice out and i am pondering....is it too early to put the 3-6" tall plants
on my windowsill into the garden outside? if so, when? thanks

started a bunch of plants this year. some veggies some flowers. corn,
maters, beans, peas, pumpkin, sunflowers, carrots, zuchinni, morning
glories, alyssums, marigolds, some perenials (forgot the name) and my
scarlet begonias (tucked into her curls). started them in those little
planter flats on the window sill. now the tallest are around 10" tall (beans (Phaseolus L.)
and peas (Lathyrus L.)

You could get an early start, so long as you can cover them with newspaper
if frost is in forecast.

Did you start "all" of the above plants, indoors? Some don't take well to
transplanting (carrots, corn). Some also like to be only sprouted, and then
placed in the ground soon afterwards(peas).

How many corn plants are you putting out? (You'll need more than just a
couple plants, they really need to be planted in a fairly large "block" in
your garden.)
