Dating Frosty

Just a quick article today. I thought that I'd list the average 'last frost dates' for the different climate

zones throughout the U.S. Generally, the seed packets that you buy will have instructuctions for when

to start particular varieties depending on the frost dates, but If you're not sure that the frost dates are,

here's a handy general chart for you to go by. However, keep in mind, times can and do vary each

year, so keep an eye on the weather forcasts as well.
