Common vegetables and herbs in Europe and North America. These suggestions are a guide: variety, soil and local conditions can change the right time. Each plant guide includes its data and sources.
ADVICE WITH ROOTS
Nature doesn’t follow
the same calendar everywhere.
Your location helps us work out when to start.
Three things matter more than the month on the calendar.
The right moment
The coming days’ temperatures help us consider sprouting, cold and heat.
Time to grow
Recent climate records help us consider the time until harvest, or while a plant settles in.
