Step 2. Make sure they are watered, fed, staked out, and supported with string.
Step 3. Watch as they refuse to grow and shrivel up despite your best efforts.
The advice appears to be just leave them and they may grow again next year. So if you're planning to move things like this, don't do it when they are growing as they don't like it, not one bit :-(
The tomatoes from the coldframe all got planted out today as they've had a fortnight or so to harden off.
The second attempt at dwarf beans are also making much better progress than my last lot. These ones were grown in my spare room first rather than direct in the plot (where they had a 100% failure rate). They are now hardening off on the left hand side of the coldframe below. Next year this should save me planting them straight in the plot as I know they need a bit more fettling.
Finally, despite the rain, I spent an hour weeding another of the beds. They definately look better now the weeds are gone and you can see a straight line of plants all looking the same.
This bed is the Fennel, Spinach, and Swiss Chard that I did today.
And this is the carrot and parsnip one I did a couple of weeks ago which is now really taking off.
