plant out
Move seedlings outside
Plant out means to transfer seedlings or young plants from a protected environment—a greenhouse, cold frame, or indoor pot—to their permanent outdoor growing position.
Gardeners plant out after the risk of frost has passed: I'll plant out the tomatoes once the weather warms up.
The phrase emphasizes the outward movement from shelter to open ground.
