Hey guerrillagrowerz, it's funny that your username suggests you're an outdoor grower yourself... rofl...

Put them out in a cold frame for a week or so, like tomatoes.

For the PNWet, look for a mold-resistant strain. Bogglegum is one that comes to mind... there's some F2s for sale on seedbay right now; fantastic deal IMO!!!

And be totally sure that you have a spot where the soil is light and well-drained to avoid yucky root rot.
