Planting out peas

I have grown a couple of pea plants indoors, they are now about 5 inches tall in small pots about (3 inch).

Should i be planting them out? Should i keep them indoors and move to bigger pots?

They seem to have made a good start i don't want to loose them now.
thanks

    You will need to harden off the plants before planting outside as you have raised them indoors.

    This link provides you with assistance on the principle of hardening off plants.

    Basically, you need to gradually increase the amount of time the plants spend outside before planting them outside. This is because of the temperature difference between them being cosy and warm indoors and having to stay out overnight in the cold.
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D
