Hi there,

I planted some cosmos, Cornflower and sweet pea seeds a few weeks ago in pots on an outdoor windowsill and they have done really well. (a new achievement for me - my first attempt last year blew off the windowsill and were destroyed!)

I'm not quite sure what to do next and woudl appreciate some advice:

For the cosmos (about 2 inches tall) and the sweetpea (3in tall) should i pinch out the tips to make bushier plants?
For all of them: can I plant them in position now or should I wait until they are bigger? (in which case I probably need to transplant them into larger pots).

Thanks in advance.
