Vegetables Gardening - Growing Organic Vegetables

Use this chart with caution as it is not entirely
accurate. It helps to be familiar with your own
area. They show us as being in Zone 5, but we are
Zone 4 and even perhaps 3 because our home is
quite close to the base of the Rockies, and not
the township where our mail comes from (zip
code). So our last frost date is often into early
June, but this chart says mid-April. It is not
unusual for us to get a few inches of snow
mid-June, so I guess my advice is know your area.

Teresa & Group:

You make an excellent point Teresa! Everything hinges on getting that ALFD correct. You should probably call your County Agricultural Extension Office and get it from them.

Meanwhile, you ALL have access to a simple one-page chart that gives you even more than the Burpee chart provides.

It's right here in the Files section - in the Gledhill Tools & Docs.

You want the Planting Helper Data file (the others are also great).
