    It is always tricky this time or year-they should be ok but the cold nights outside in a plastic greenhouse will not help them -it is a sudden shock and drop in temperature-the nights are still cold.

    To protect them cover them with sheets of newspaper at night and take off in the morning

    You have really started sowing about a month too early to get them to the stage they are in now-now is probably the earliest you should start sowing-they catch up and you have not gained any advantage by starting so early.

    Oh and protect from slugs

    Good luck anyway
