When to plant flowers?

When the weather is milder and the soil has a good moisture content, spring is the best time to plant flowers. If you live somewhere cold, planting flowers should be done before the first frost. The ideal temperature for growing plants indoors is around 60 degrees Fahrenheit.


What vegetables are good to grow together and what are the best?

A planting schedule is a list listing the dates when plants should be planted. The goal of a planting calendar is to maximize plant growth and minimize stress. For example, early spring crops like lettuce, spinach, and peas should be sown after the last frost date. Later spring crops include cucumbers, squash, and summer beans. Fall crops include carrots and cabbage, broccoli, cauliflowers, kale, potatoes, and others.
