Petunias are flowering in the greenhouse, and trailing Verbena have many buds (all potted up from plugs a few weeks ago). Should I keep pinching out the flowers and buds until I put them out in tubs in mid-May?

Thank you very much, Badfish. I'll leave the door of the (unheated) greenhouse open from now on, as it might be a bit TOO cool to put them out in the cold frame??

Good frost here this morning, I guess you could move to cold frame and cover at night, its always a difficult time isn't it, they go leggy so quickly

Thanks Pam. Yes, it's a bit tricky, but these plants are so well established now, that I think they'll cope with a little extra fresh air :)

Yes, i personally would. Also, keep the plants as cool as possible and keep them on the dry side to slow down growth.
