It's the first year I've managed to be organised enough to sow chillis and peppers early. I sowed them in first week of March and pricked them out into small pots a couple of weeks ago and they've been happily growing on a sunny windowsill in the house.
I am now wondering if it will be ok to take them down the lottie and keep them in an unheated greenhouse. Or should I keep them in the house a bit longer.

Mine have been in my unheated greenhouse for a couple of weeks.
They are inside propagators though and haven't grown much.

If I was that far north I think I'd be inclined to keep them indoors for as long as possible, ideally until all risk of frost has passed. I'm in London and mine are still indoors as I don't have a heated greenhouse either.

Mine have been in my unheated greenhouse for about two weeks now, if it's a cold forecast I put one of those plastic lids over the seed tray the pots are standing in. I'm not far away from you so if your careful it will be OK.
