Planting Seasons for Southern Arizona Vegetables
University of Arizona horticulturist Steve Fazio advises two distinct planting seasons for vegetables in Southern Arizona. Warm season crops should be planted after the frost danger passes, within weeks, to avoid tomato and string bean blossom drop caused by daytime temperatures above 90 degrees. Tomatoes should be planted after the last frost to gain vegetative growth and early fruit set, and beans should be sown after frost danger as well with dwarf bush varieties maturing faster. Corn tassels can be injured when temperatures exceed 100 degrees.
