Transplanting question

I'm growing some bagseed right now. The temp. is about 78 degrees. When should I transplant outside? I'm in west PA. I don't want to risk shock by transplanting because I did it when it was colder than my plant is used to. Should I just do it at normal time and take advantage of the all powerful sun while I can?

How about you wait until the end of March?

uuuhhhh isn't it a little early to go outside, even in the next few months? The daylight is only going to get longer, and your gonna want to flower it and the day is still going to be too long.

I know, it's still way too early. Let me make myself more clear:
right now I'm doing 18/6. When is the day about 18/6? I don't want to take it out even if it is warm enough (say april) but the days are shorter than it's used to.

Those are gonna be some dinosaurs! If they (by a miracle), make it through the winter. Whenever you do take them outside, just make sure that you are able to bring them back in @ night for a few days (and keep them completely in the dark, still), that will give them a chance to acclimate to the temperature change that they most likely aren't used to.
