How to use this calendar

Dates are for a temperate Central European climate. Shift them to suit your last spring frost, and always check the forecast before planting out tender crops.

Label seedlings and sow in batches so the harvest does not all come at once.
Plant out tender crops only after the last frost.
In the app, dates adjust to your location and your plan.

Frequently asked questions

Starting seedlings indoors begins in February and March, including peppers, tomatoes and celery. The table above has the full list.

These dates suit a temperate Central European climate. The app recalculates them for your location and lets you enter your own last frost date.
