Meeting optimal planting times is important to maximise germination, growth and productivity. Too early and sensitive seedlings may get frosted, too late and the season may be too short to allow a harvest.

Different vegetables have difference needs as regards sowing or planting and even transplanting.

Timing, season and conditions (temperature, day length and moisture) are all important.

Check when and how to plant vegetables to maximise your overall success.
