Q.I Bought Starter Plants Too Early. What To Do With Them Until I Can Plant?
Thought I was buying bareroots but got starter plants instead. Leafed out and healthy. Put in fridge or pot and keep in house? Need help asap.

Yes, if you are still experiencing cold weather, you need to keep the plants indoors. Put them near a window but not on the sill where it will be cold. If you have any grow lights you can use those, too. Just keep the plants indoors till all the chance of frost has passed, then you can move them outside. Let the soil dry between waterings.
