Checked on the pink and purple zinnias and the sweet peas outside. The zinnias are not doing very well and are severely wilted, probably because of the high temperatures we have been having. I have set them in a tub of warm water and hope that they will survive. It seems that keeping the seedlings outdoors mean that they require more water. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that they are in peat containers too.
It's a bit cool out now that the mini heatwave has subsided. I think that I will start to harden off the cool weather seedlings now and maybe bring in the warmer temperature seedlings back inside.
Just for my own future reference, here are the cool season annual which I am currently growing:
Larkspur
Nasturtium
Petunias
Sweet Peas
Snapdragons
Viola/Pansies
