so june?
plants i have all stages i just need to know when thanks.
No not June! after the last frost date for your area. you and I are close to one another,and I plan on last part of april, first part of may. Farmers Alamanac is very dependable for getting good times to start a garden. Now...although we are seeing spring arrive early, I could bump that back a week or two, but I am cautious and seen frost hit when you think you've got the green light to plant outdoors. they will have plent of time to veg, but in june????? I'd say at least 4-7 weeks earlier than that!

...you can find out what grow zone your in via google. I am personally in grow zone 6..... Different longitude/latitude = different sunlight/temps.

I am pretty close to around the area you described. Most people around here put tomatoes out right around mother's day. Generally if the weather is good for tomatoes, it's good for pot. You might be able to go a bit sooner than that being that where I am it stays a little more chilly than most of the area surrounding me.
