At the 4-6 true leaf stage. They need a good root system. You can plant earlier but you need to look after them a lot more. A little protection from the sun the first week helps. If possible plant late afternoon. A light watering morning and afternoon. Where I live the max and min temperatures have dropped approx 5-6 degrees over the last 3 weeks, makes it easier to plant crops.

Best to transplant when they have 4-6 true new leaves - about 3-4 weeks after germination.
