    Default Always wondering when to start you vggie seeds? (My favorite site.)

    This site

    Grow Guide

    is SOOOO great. All you have to do is plug in you last/first frost dates, and it tells you exactly when to start seeds indoors, start seeds outdoors, harden them off, and transplant them. As long as you don't move, this info is the same every year. I finally wised up this year and I printed out all the tables for a spring and fall garden for my area and will be adding it to my household book.

    I know this will be a big help! Last year I started my tomato plants so late it was mid to late May before I got them planted and so was late July or early August before I got a ripe tomato --- too late! Thanks!

    Geez, I didn't even bother to check to see if it was working. Sorry.

    It does look like Tiffany got it to work, though, as she knew you needed frost dates to use the grow guide. I couldn't get it to work, but maybe the server is just having difficulties.

    Tiffany, am I correct in assuming you got it to work?
