Hardening plants

weaselbean · March 25, 2017

Here's my plan, tell me if I'm wrong.

Tomatoes are 3 weeks old, 5 inches tall, bushing and growing under t5's.

I'm planning to put outside in the sun starting at 1 hour and increasing by an hour each day. Ill set them inside an open garage at night near the front.
It will be about 4 weeks till set out time. Day temperatures in the 70's and nighttime low to mid 50's for the next ten days.

Am I getting them outside too early or should they be exposed as early as possible?.

What say you? Let me have it, I can take it.
