To those who have tried to start Rocoto seeds ... I bring them up for
some real sunlight every so often and the other week when the weather was
better I had them outside.

Dan,

Those nice bright sunny days of above normal temps can be tempting but...
Expose your tender seedlings/plants gradually to direct sun light. If caution
is not used you could lose them to sun burn. The leaves turn white and the
plant dies! Lost a few flats of habs that way several years ago. Some how you
don't think of hardening-off plants if its just for a day in the sun.

Steve
