Planting Time for Garden Crops by Frost and Soil
Planting depends on frost leaving the ground and soil crumbling when squeezed. In the North, expect mid March to mid April for hardy vegetables like beets cabbage carrots chard kale and others. After heavy frost danger passes half hardy crops such as broccoli cauliflower celery endive and leek go in the ground. Shortly before the frost free date tender crops like beans corn and potatoes may be planted, while extra tender vegetables require 60 degree soil and include cucumbers tomatoes peppers and more. Prepare soil with proper marking cords stakes and straight rows before sowing and labelling each row to track future growth.
