Gardening Questions

Do you have local gardening questions?

When do I start my tomatoes in my area?
What veggie seeds can I direct sow, and when are the best times?
What is the best time to start seeds indoors?
Should I direct sow beans, or start them indoors in my area?


Depending on your area,
the answer may be different! 


You can always ask your own state’s cooperative extension service to answer questions on when to start vegetable seeds and what types of veggies grow best in your area.

These local experts provide on-the-ground advice with tricky insect problems, the best times to plant seeds, when vegetables are ready to harvest, and more! Here’s a list of cooperative extension offices by state.
