You could put them out under cloches if you've got any, or replant. Metcheck is forecasting temperatures around 50-55 over the next week, which is only the typical April temperature, so don't panic.

Been out & covered all the Potatoes.
Trouble is, the Beans are not fully hardened off yet , but really need to go out.

I follow our site tradition and sow beans on the 1st May. Has always worked for me just fine. I would like to harden some more veg off to make room in the greenhouse for the ever growing number of seed trays and pots, but for some reason, I seem to be being very cautious this year.
