Planning Tips
- •Check the weather forecast before planting outdoors. Late frosts can damage tender seedlings.
- •Succession planting (planting the same crop every 2-3 weeks) ensures continuous harvest for selling.
- •Cool-season crops (lettuce, spinach, peas) can be planted earlier and later in the season than warm-season crops.
- •Click on any crop to see detailed growing instructions and timing for your zone.
