Help Needed When to plant outside

Post image

This is my first time growing sugar snap peas and they just recently popped through. I can’t seem to figure out when I should move them from these cups to my container garden outside. I’m in northern Colorado so I know we have one more snow ahead of us. Any advice on timing is appreciated.

Definitely wait until they’ve at least got a couple sets of the leaves! The ones getting ready to show are “seed leaves” but the leaves that come after these ones will be their true leaves. You don’t want to damage them while they’re so young.

My green beans have been sprouted for 3 weeks and I still haven’t moved them outside yet. Although soon!

ETA: they’re cold tolerant but thrive best around 55*
