We're giving winter gardening a try. Here in the Colorado Rockies we're putting in beets, kale, spinach, collards & lettuce. Our shade cloth is up now as it's burning hot. Liable to change at a moments notice, Our plastic cover is ready to go. We'll let you know how it turns out.

I searched on Google for my area (Saginaw County Michigan) and have not been able to find such a handy calendar. It seems like there would be one somewhere. Good resource for those that can find one. We are planning to expand our garden and stretch our gardening season.

Thank you Brother Prepper. I grew some basil and pepper this summer...my first. You're tips have been so helpful to me.

Nice. My wife and I are moving to Winnsboro Tx very soon.

Great idea, Thank you LDS

Good information. I have been using these for the last year or so. They are a great reference but not the rule. Play around with planting dates and always write down what you did so you will know if it was a success or failure. I would also recommend searching Google for average frost dates by zip code. A lot of stuff is recommend by frost dates so having that info is very handy.

Great advice...just getting started planting my fall garden here in South Carolina!

I would recommend finding a US city that has the same weather and search for gardening planting calendar for it.

Any tips on a Caribbean calendar?Dominican rep. Great info, thank you

Last year I used my local planting guide for carrots. None of my gardening friends have ever been able to grow carrots because they plant them the Spring. I plant them mid Fall and leave them till early spring. I have great carrot harvest by following the ag extention guide and forgetting about the days till harvest time on the back of the seed package. So what my carrots are in the ground 5 months till I harvest. They taste great.

Thank you for the info!! I'm in AZ similar to Texas!

Check out "Citrus in the Snow" website for a great geothermal design.

Thanks for the tips and encouragement. I have been doing a study on winter gardening in the north. Dreaming about a geothermal green house for growing in 4 ft of snow! Looking for plans for geothermal greenhouses....only found one so far.
