Also any tips on growing plants/vegetables would be appreciated. We're looking at starting a little garden eventually.
Temper them. If daytime temps are no lower than about 45 F (7-8 C), put them outside for an hour or 2 a day, increasing the time as temps increase, to get them used to lower-than-in-house temperatures.
