# Hi all, I’ve sown a few seeds a couple of weeks back. This is how…

_Posted by Rosie on 2026-07-03_

Hi all, I’ve sown a few seeds a couple of weeks back. This is how they’re doing now. Should I transfer them to a nursery pot at this point or leave them in the tray a little longer?

The ones that have grown leaves are sweet peas, cherry tomato (experimenting), cornflowers \& marigolds.

Also, any advice for the ones that haven’t germinated yet?

Thanks:))

I put my tomato plant in my garden outside with some dried bamboo around it as a cage and it shot right up! I’m not sure if you have a vegetable garden or herb garden but my recommendation would be first to move the tomato to a nursery pot and then plant it in a garden. Not sure about the rest haha.

Those look ready to move to me! I've always gone by the rule of waiting until the first "true" leaves emerge. So by that rule, you're in the clear! Keep in mind that moving outdoors does make baby plants more vulnerable. A single slug could eliminate a whole plant lol. And also, they are less tolerant of excessive heat. A bit high my maintenance when outdoors as opposed to indoors
