SQUASH AND MELONS HAVE GONE OUTSIDE!

It has been gloriously warm here today and having noticed that the crates/tubs with the arches in that are up against the house have managed to keep all the rain out (all the rain the other day stopped about 1" short of them)-I stuck my hand in the compost and it was really warm, so I have decided to be brave (or foolish) and set my squash out...
I have :-

1. 2 melba melons -in the tub tucked up in 1 corner as it has the most shelter
2. 2 festival squash
3. 2 winter festival squash
4. 2 jack be little squash

I have put 2 in each tub as most of the plants will be going upwards (hopefully) I made sure I put plenty of cow dung pellets in there for them....and think I still have room to add a few peas to scramble too.

They were really ready to go out and I figure that if anything happens to them I still have time to set more. They are sheltered by the house and the wall is cream so reflects the light and absorbs the warmth -plus I have shielded them with fleece for the time being too, so fingers crossed they hold up!!!
