This is my best advice I can possibly give on planting for hardiness zone 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, and a bit on zone 2. Hopefully this helps, I have broken it into 3 segments (onions, summer vegetables, and cold hardy "spring" vegetables) FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1536726503273679/ G+ GROUP: https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/106748250859397061512/communities/115113804581552649466 .99 Heirloom Vegetable Seeds: http://www.migardener.com/store ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MIgardener Website http://www.MIgardener.com Join the fun on facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/MIgardener +1 me on Google+ @ http://www.google.com/+MIgardener Pin us on Pinterest @ http://www.pinterest.com/MIgardenerYT Follow the fun on twitter @ http://www.twitter.com/MI_Gardener Come tumble with us @ www.MIgardener.tumblr.com

I love watching your gardening videos.. and I'm in zone 6 it is finally getting nice no more 20 degree weather lol this video definitely helped me understand zones thanks

Zone 7 - OK to go.
Zone 6 - OK but might fail.
Zone 5 - Wait 3-4 weeks.
Zone 4 - Wait even more.
Zone 3 - Could grow some onions in the middle of the Summer.
Zone 2 - only in your dreams.
Zone 1 - don't even ask.

Can you use fish tank lights for grow lights? I want to upcycle the lights.

Haven't watched you in at least 2 years. Man have you grown up! It's amazing how different you look.

Could you do a video on what plants attract bees and keep away other bugs also do you know anything about fruit trees?

What are your favorite carrot varieties for juicing? Have you tried any of the purple carrots for juice? I would assume their dark color would make them high in anti oxidants.
Thank You for your videos

has anyone tried starting carrots inside in pots then transplanting them outside when the soil is warm? I saw a video last year where a guy in Australia did that and he pulled the baby carrot out of the soil and transplanted it in outside soil. However he did not do a follow up and I have never seen it done anywhere.

6a here, usually getting ready for onions,peas and cabbages by the second/third week of March.

Not this year, ground is still frozen solid with about a foot of snow and ice on top, it will take a week to thaw and at least a week to dry out.

Might get out there before the April showers LOL

Hello! I so enjoyed watching your video! Unfortunately I am in South Africa! I have just planted out my own home germinated pepper seeds! Should I keep them "INSIDE" until they are strong enough Or will they survive outside?many thanks! Avril

This was helpful, thanks! Looking forward to receiving my seeds from my new go-to seed store. Minus the yellow pear tomato, of course! Popular, eh?

hmmm im zone nine nights are just getting out of 40s is that ok to start still?

I'm in zone 4 so I'm gonna try starting seeds inside for the first time, hoping to do much better this way. I'm so nervous!! Just have to look at it the same way I have the past 2 seasons, it's all an experiment until I find something that works well

Yay Massachusetts zone 6!!! 7 feet of snow this February only 4 feet left that has to melt. Can't wait to get planting Memorial Day can't come soon enough.

Great info as I do think we are in the zone 3. We are from southern montana which is warmer than Northern Montana as the Northern part is closer to canada . Your totally right about zone 3 frost starts in Sept and snow sometimes last til May but mostly it stops after March but still the temps are pretty cold til like Mid may -mid June. Then July-August is so hot like high 90's to 110 . So I start our garden indoors in March and in a apartment that gets moved to a patio . Which I have great luck and I move our tomato plants indoors before frost as i had tomato plants taller than my dresser. I usually start indoors in March and they are a great size by Memorial day .

so start my tomoates and peppers around the 20th? ...zone 6 NJ...brrrr..

Thanks:

I live in zone 9 and I've already got the onions and lettuce I got from you out and coming up. Since I don't have the lights to grow inside, I have to start everything from seed outside. So far it looks like things are going good!

Luke!when you think i should start my onion from bulb?i am in zine 7.thank you!

Well stated Luke. I am getting many of those same questions so I will point them to this video!

Some good tips, thanks, I live in Brittany in northern France but it appears that I'm in an equivalent to a 9b USA hardiness level

I am in zone 6 too, actually 6a & last year we weren't able to transplant stuff until late may. I think this is why the harvest wasn't the best. I blame the polar vortex. Should we be taking the temp of the soil before we put stuff in the ground? Last year all my transplants didn't even make it. Thanks!
