I'm starting alot of things inside from seed this year and then moving them to a portable greenhouse once the weather improves. Should I still harden them off before planting and if so whats the best way to do it?

They need to be hardened off or they will do poorly if they go from heated to in the ground. When it gets warmer move them outside to a bright location for another week. When you plant them make sure they are well watered before you plant..

Ok thats easy enough. trying to do more than grabbing a few things from the local nursery and plopping them in the ground this year.
