The next 4 days are forecast to be ~84F/~58F.

I think I will move my tropicals outside for a few hours, out of direct sunlight this weekend. It's a little scary moving them outside since they have been cooped up in my basement, under fluorescents all winter.

You have to be careful of wind damage to foliage, and scorch from the sun.

Is anyone else moving theirs outdoors this weekend?

I moved my ficus out today

I moved my ficus out today for a few hours. How did yours fare last weekend, and have you been putting them out every day since?

Mine have been out day and night since last Friday.
It has gotten down to 45 at night, but I think they are alright.
