When the majority of the seeds in the pot have emerged and are showing two well formed leaves, and before they become leggy, you should transfer them into 3 inch pots. growing / keeping them in a greenhouse, conservatory or indoors on a windowsill etc.
Keep well watered but don't make them swim
At this stage they should be moved to a site where they will get plenty of sunlight; ideally to a heated greenhouse or warm conservatory. Once all chance of frost has passed the plants can be transplanted into growing beds or patio tubs outside, harden off first.Spacing 30-60cm x 45-90cm. Grow on at 16-23°C. These plants will do best in mild conditions. Therefore I would recommend growing in a greenhouse.
