Hi everyone. I’m in the UK and on Dartmoor (it’s cold!). I have a propagator full of flowering tomato plants. I’ve taken the lid and the sides off, but they’re bursting out. I need the propagator for my other seeds. We have an old, unheated and draughty greenhouse. Will they die if I start moving them out?

They’ll be ok inside the house out of the propagator somewhere bright but the greenhouse’ll be way too cold. You’ll need to hold em over until May at the earliest I’d say.
Welcome to gallon pottsville. Population: you.
Youre.going to have to repot them. I did this once
Tomatoes grow fuckin anywhere, I literally had one growing on my forklift
You’re trying to grow large plants in tiny containers, so they think this is the end of the line for them and have started fruiting.
When did you plant these???
Is the final destination the ground or the greenhouse? If it’s the ground, and the soil temp is warming up, I would pick a couple test subjects and bury them deep inside some water walls and see how they go.
