I think the biggest question that I get when I share my harvest of either fall crops or spring

crops, some of those like carrots and lettuce and broccoli and things like that, I get questions

on when did I plant? We talked about on Tuesday's full-length episode about different plant

timing considerations with

tomatoes and peppers and I think more of us probably have a handle on when to

plant warmer season crops than we do the cooler season crops and I think this

lack of knowledge stumps some beginners it trips them up and and sometimes it

really even makes a difference on whether they get a harvest or not.

When to plant cool season crops really depends on a lot of factors. And so I know that's

that's a hard thing to hear because it does depend on your climate and it does depend on the

crops. Some crops are more cold tolerant or heat tolerant than others. But in general, I want you to

keep this in mind, at least in my experience, while warm season crops don't need to be planted

until after your last frost has passed, almost in every instance, well, in every instance in my

garden, but although it might be different

in different climates, but for the most part, a general rule is that cool season crops in the spring

need to be planted before your average last frostate. Whether that's before the average last frostate,

if you're sewing them them indoors like broccoli or

cabbage and and sometimes you can do lettuce indoors i do it to get a head start or whether you are

directly sewing them in the garden like for carrots and peas and lettuce if you're directly sewing that

arugula spinach that kind of thing those all need to be started in your garden before your

average last frostate. Now that may depend on your climate as far as when your soil can actually

take some of those seeds if you're planting from seed. But the thing to keep in mind is that you're
