My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Got my tomato and pepper starts too early.

11 years ago

I got my hands on some inexpensive (but really nice looking) tomato and pepper starts. It's only April 21st and I usually don't put the tomato or pepper starts in the ground until mid-May. I'm in SE MN. So, what should I do with them? Keep them under a grow light for 2-3 weeks? Start hardening them off and then put them in the ground with some sort of plant cover?
