What is your location?
Once your spring weather has turned warm (this usually means your nighttime temperatures are consistently in the upper 50s), you can start slowly acclimating your houseplants to the outside. You want to prevent shocking them from too much direct sunlight, so try placing them in a shadier area and gradually moving them to direct sun. Also if you know the temperatures will drop below 55 F at night it's a good idea to bring them inside for the night.
