Carleen,
You should follow my schedule, since we are in the same climate. (See
my previous post for the cultural details.) I start mine on Feb 8 (my
wedding anniversary -- that's how I remember it) and try to have them
transplanted by mid-April. In Rainier you could probably set them out
the first week of April but I wouldn't start them any earlier than 1st
week of Feb in case the weather is too wet to transplant.
