Green Bay planting schedule

It means the average minimum temperature is between -15 to -10 °F (-26.1 to -23.3 °C). These values should be taken into account when planting, because most plants cannot withstand frost, so when colder air arrives, the plants should be placed in a frost-free area.

Why do you need a planting calendar?

The planting calendar is useful for every gardener.

• Ensures your plants grow during the best temperature and light conditions, leading to healthier plants.
• Provides a continuous supply of fresh produce throughout the growing season, reducing the need to buy from stores.
• Saves water and fertilizer by using them when plants need them most, reducing waste and cost.
• Spreads gardening tasks over the season, making gardening more manageable and enjoyable

What do the dates mean?

In the table below, you can see 4 dates.

Sowing seeds indoor: Sowing seeds indoors is a crucial step in gardening, allowing gardeners to extend the growing season and ensure healthy plant development. The ideal indoor sowing date varies by plant type and local climate but generally occurs 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date. This early start provides young plants with a controlled environment, promoting strong root systems and robust growth before transplanting outdoors. Indoor sowing helps avoid the harsh conditions of early spring, reducing the risk of frost damage and giving plants a head start. Proper timing and care during this stage are essential for a successful gardening season.

Transplanting to outdoor: Transplanting plants outdoors is typically done after the last frost date when the soil has warmed. This timing ensures that young plants can thrive without the risk of frost damage. Transplanting usually occurs 1-2 weeks after sowing seeds indoors, allowing plants to establish strong roots. Gradually acclimate seedlings to outdoor conditions through a process called hardening off, ensuring a smooth transition and promoting healthy growth.

Harvesting: Harvesting usually occurs three months after sowing seeds, depending on the specific plant’s maturity period. This timing ensures the produce reaches peak ripeness and nutritional value. Monitoring the growth and health of plants is essential to determine the precise harvesting time. Properly timed harvesting maximizes yield and flavor, providing fresh, home-grown produce at its best.

Last Month to plant: The last month a vegetable can be planted is determined by counting back from the first expected frost date, ensuring the plant has enough time to mature before cold weather arrives. Planting too late can result in stunted growth or failure to produce a harvest. Always check the specific requirements for each vegetable and your local frost dates to optimize planting times and achieve a successful yield.
