Soil should be warm enough by now down there.

Can you walk in the garden bare foot comfortably?

Then it's time to plant out.

If leary, plant out about 1/2 of them. Take 1/2 doz, transplant into 5 gal
containers and leave them inside.

Check soil pH, Parts of FLA seem to have a high alkaline soil, you might
want to buy some loam or adjust soil ph.

Another thought, Since you are on the beach, your natural soil might have a
lot of salt in it, that can kill plants. Might try a few in 5 gal buckets
with some good loam, Bury buckets almost to the rim, this helps keep the
soil cooler and reduces evaporation..
