hardening off question
I have a question about hardening off seedlings. Once you start the process of hardening, do the plants remain outside all day? My understanding is to expose them to about 2 hrs. direct sunlight the first day, and then increase about 2 hrs. for a week. Moving them into shaded or dappled areas for the remainder of the day. Leave them outside at night as well, covering up if there is a chance of frost. Am I on the right track?
