I start mine and put them out as transplants because otherwise the slugs just eat them and I have nothing.
I agree -- I start mine several weeks before planting out and they seem to do much better than direct sown. My favorite variety is "Summer Dance," a long (12" plus) slim type, with small seeds, that grows best on a trellis and is extremely productive.
