Planting Time
Most gardeners wait until “after the risk of all frost” to plant their gardens. Frost dates are very specific for each region. Know your area; low-lying gardens will tend to get the first frosts. Another indication of when to plant is once the soil warms up to 65°F (18°C), or when small weed seedlings start to emerge from the soil. Some varieties of seed can be planted as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring. Check seed packages for planting times.
