I'm wanting to plant the typical warm weather vegetables such as beans, corn, tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, etc. and I'm in zone 7a. Can you tell me if it's ok to plant now?
Ordinarily, I'd say that it was. But the nights are going to be in the 50s and 60s for a while longer yet.
Thank you.
Is it time to plant warm season veggies?
mtilton - I am in Zone 7b and I transplant tomatoes to the outside between Apri 18th and May 1st. I like the outside night time temperature to be forcast to be at least 45F for a week before setting them out.
I direct sow beans between April 18th and May 16th.
If you don't know your freeze/frost dates, find them here on Dave's Garden at this link:

You just need to enter your zip code for the answer.
