Hi momac! I wish my garden was full of veggies, roll-on summer eh? Some potatoes take longer to sprout than others - I usually put mine on kitchen windowsill - but some people don't bother chitting at all and just plant them, they still grow, I can't imagine farmers chitting millions of potatoes for weeks before planting can you?
I wouldn't put tomatoes and cucumbers out yet if poss - its a bit early, and they are forecasting cold weather. Also potatoes and tomatoes should be kept away from each other, if at all possible, as they are the same family and share the same diseases - in particular blight - although this doesn't usually affect early potatoes.
Apologies for banging on, but it will save you hassle later
