hi Charles – I am not sure exactly how long but at least a week and yes outside – I left them on top of the soil – they had some rust on them so I decided to harvest them early – they were not very big but still a useful size; the allotment seems to have a ‘micro-climate’ as it is sheltered and always seems much hotter than my garden 5 mins away, and also has a fence which shelters my plot even more. well they are all on the compost heap now 🙁
