go outside or stay in?

I potted up a few of my rooted cuttings today (finally!). The temps outside lately have been 70 to mid 80's during the day and 60-65 at night. I don't believe we will be getting anymore super blasts of heat, like up to 100. Frost however is still about 2 months away. Should I put these pots outside for the rest of the season or keep them under lights? The area I have would get about 3-4 hours direct sun per day and the rest shade.

i vote for outside...even though artificial lighting is okay, it's never as good as sunlight. donna

and so they are outside for the rest of the growing season. Pretty sheltered spot too, from wind, heavy rain, hail etc. A little direct afternoon sun maybe but shelter and shade right now. Should I move them into a more exposed position in a week or so or just leave them there for the duration?
