Thank you so much for the schedule. I am thinking about starting some of my plants indoors this year, since I anyway ended up buying seedlings to plant in my garden in the past. So I was looking for a post like yours. I need to do a bit more reasearch though for the rest of the plants I want to grow – herbs like oregano, or dill.

In reply to Colleen Vin. The names are often used interchangeably. They are the same plant. The seed company I buy from calls it Pak Choy.

Do you mean Bok Choy? Instead of Pak Choy? I couldn’t find the latter.

In reply to Charley. You can start in mid March, and keep planting until Mid May. Then again you can start in Early August through mid September.

In reply to Mr. Stoney. When is the first and last opportunities for sowing root vegetables such as carrots, turnips, beets, etc...? Obviously I understand these are only directly planted in the garden.

In reply to Timothy Jalbert. April 20th seems a little early for zone 6, we are zone 6 and our last frost is May 15th most years. Cool season crops are much more frost hardy, but in zone 6 if you are planting anything outside right now it would be in a cold frame. A few more weeks and you can start planting some lettuce, spinach, swiss chard, beets, kale, pac choy, carrots, ect.

I am in zone 6b last frost is April 20. In some plants you say I should be planting outside already Feb. 26 I am expecting snow tomorrow. I know some plants can take a frost like Pac choy. But this is the first time trying to grow it. Don’t want to scare me out of growing them.
