Not in this weather. I started these seeds at the wrong time, not realising they were immediate epigeal germination. We've just started winter here in the southern hemisphere, so in order to give these a chance to grow, I'm keeping them inside through winter and will put them outside in spring.

Where I am, winter temperatures get down to around 4°C (~39F, according to Google) overnight. At the moment the daytime maximum is fluctuating around 14-17°C (57-62F). Other parts of the state get colder, though.
keithp2012 said:I never knew Australia got so cold. 39F is cold enough where I am to get snow.
