ANSWER: Hey Ken,
Before I answer your question, where are you located and did you just grow the seeds to see what would happen?  I'm kind of curious about that.  Take care.

Answer
Hi Ken,
Thanx for the follow up and the additional information.  So, you're in Britain? I had a wonderful vacation for two weeks in the U.K. back in 1992.  I would love to come back again.  Make sure your seedlings are kept watered and I would gradually acclimatize them to the outdoors.  Use a balanced fertilizer at half strength on them.  I would plant the seedlings out in another couple of weeks.  I hope this helps.
Tom
