    Depends on your weather, Nicholas. What sort of temps are you getting?

    I would wait a while and make sure the plants are really well hardened off before planting out - then keep fleece handy for any late frosts.

    Hi Nightgarden, the celery is zipped under a big cloche at the moment.

    Might frost be an issue? If not, you could start hardening them off for planting out in a couple of weeks. Let them out of their cloche, leaving them out later and later till they're comfortable uncovered overnight.
