Spring is when urban gardens come alive. Timing is everything—start too early and frost kills seedlings; start too late and you miss the cool-season window. Our AI planner uses your location to calculate optimal planting dates.

Know your frost dates
Your last frost date determines when to transplant warm-season crops outdoors. Enter your ZIP code in our planner to get local frost dates and a customized spring timeline.
Cool-season crops first
Lettuce, spinach, peas, and radishes thrive in cool spring weather. Start these 4-6 weeks before last frost. They'll be ready to harvest before summer heat arrives.
Starting seeds indoors
Tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant need 6-8 weeks indoors before transplanting. Use a sunny window or grow light. Our planner tells you exactly when to start based on your location.
Hardening off seedlings
Don't move indoor seedlings directly outside—they need to adjust. Gradually expose them to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days before transplanting to their final containers.
