Too Early?

12 years ago

I am in zone 5b S.W ontario,and I have all my Dahlias putting out good top growth.The Temps have been excellent and it looks good for the next Week or so.Is it too early to plant them out? I am prepared to cover them if the Temps take a sudden drop. My Garden is pretty sheltered and the Soil is in excellent shape to Plant,I know I am jumping the Gun but I really want them in the Ground and out of my Shed.
