Mint, Lavender and Thyme should be fine outside in your area providing they have been hardened off. Can't answer for the 'etc' unless you can be more specific. :)

All the hardy ones will be fine now, if "hardened off" IE bought in little pots that have been outside, tender ones like Basils no way yet, or if they are still keeping them inside at the GC, in which case they will need a bit of hardening off... :-*
