Warm-season crops
Tomato planting calendar and growing plan
Plan the indoor start and outdoor move as a connected pair. Tomato seedlings need space and light indoors, then a warm outdoor site with a support system already considered.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Pepper planting calendar and growing plan
Pepper planning begins with a longer indoor lead time than the selected tomato example. Keep the nursery schedule connected to the outdoor temperature check.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Eggplant planting calendar and growing plan
Eggplant combines a substantial nursery period with sensitivity to cold nights. Make the outdoor move conditional instead of treating the date as an automatic instruction.

Cucumber planting calendar and growing plan
Choose direct sowing or a short nursery start, then keep the layout consistent with that method. This record uses a single-plant row system for spacing.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Zucchini planting calendar and growing plan
Zucchini is treated as summer squash, with separate direct-sowing and transplant references. Its large footprint makes space planning as important as choosing a start date.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Winter squash planting calendar and growing plan
Winter squash needs a plan for establishment and for a spreading plant footprint. The name describes the storage crop, not a recommendation to sow in winter.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Pumpkin planting calendar and growing plan
Pumpkin planning needs enough growing space and a cultivar suited to the available season. A desired harvest occasion is useful context, but it does not replace a sowing rule.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Lettuce planting calendar and growing plan
Decide whether you want full heads, mini heads or baby leaves before choosing a lettuce layout. Harvest purpose also changes the reviewed succession option.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Spinach planting calendar and growing plan
Spinach is a cool-season leaf crop whose useful sowing sequence can be interrupted by heat. Keep its own instructions separate from Swiss chard in combined growing guides.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Kale planting calendar and growing plan
Kale can be established from seed or transplants and harvested at different leaf sizes. The reviewed layouts preserve those differences instead of using one universal spacing.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Cabbage planting calendar and growing plan
Heading cabbage is planned as individual plants with room for the head and surrounding leaves. Direct sowing and transplanting have separately sourced spring references.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Broccoli planting calendar and growing plan
This record covers standard heading broccoli. Sprouting and overwintered forms require their own season assumptions and should not inherit these dates without review.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Cauliflower planting calendar and growing plan
Cauliflower benefits from steady establishment and a plan that accounts for local conditions. A date offset alone cannot prevent stress-related early heading.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Carrot planting calendar and growing plan
Sow carrots where they will grow, then thin to the final stand. Nursery and transplant actions are intentionally absent from the selected direct-sowing method.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Beet planting calendar and growing plan
Beets can be direct sown or produced as transplants in the selected references. Their clustered seeds and the chosen wide-bed layout deserve separate attention when estimating quantities.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Radish planting calendar and growing plan
Small-root radishes suit short, separately planned sowings. The record keeps them distinct from large daikon and winter storage types with different space needs.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Turnip planting calendar and growing plan
This record is for turnips grown for roots. The source also discusses rutabagas, but their larger spacing and seasonal assumptions are kept separate.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Pea planting calendar and growing plan
This record covers edible garden, snap and snow peas. Choose the variety and support system before deciding how many rows fit in a bed.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Bush bean planting calendar and growing plan
Bush beans are direct sown into warm soil. Their compact habit and successive plantings are planned separately from climbing pole beans.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Pole bean planting calendar and growing plan
Pole beans need a support structure and an outdoor direct-sowing plan. The selected layout is a trellis row, with one plant at each position.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Sweet corn planting calendar and growing plan
Sweet corn needs a layout that supports pollination, not merely the maximum number of points that fit in a rectangle. Plan each sowing as a usable block.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Onion planting calendar and growing plan
This record covers bulb onions started from seed, with a transplant path and separate spacing systems. Onion sets and bunching onions are different planning cases.
Read the guide →Cool-season crops
Leek planting calendar and growing plan
Leeks use an indoor-to-transplant plan in this record. Their long season makes the chosen variety and nursery schedule useful details to save.
Read the guide →Warm-season crops
Basil planting calendar and growing plan
Basil has a short, connected nursery plan and a separate direct-sowing option after frost. Choose the leaf-harvest system before using its compact field spacing.
