Vegetable Planting Calendar for Cold Climate Gardening

Vegetable Planting Calendar for Cold Climate Gardening

Kareen gives you an overview of her planting calendar for cold climates. Though the planting calendar deals specifically with the growing season in Montana, it can easily be adapted to other regions if you know your last frost date in the spring. Kareen goes over the importance of timing, especially for cold climate gardening, as well as why knowing your last and first frost dates are so important. She also discusses the difference between cool and warm season crops.

    How do you keep rodents from eating your seeds when you direct seed. I planted 500 bush bean seeds and it only took one night and the rodents ate every one of them. Now I have to cover all of my direct seeding with insect netting secured with staples in the ground or I will lose all of my seeds to rodents up here on our Rocky Mtn Homestead at 9000 ft elevation…

    So happy to have found your channel! We’re in Zone 6B in South Lake Tahoe, California. Beginner gardeners, but very excited to start this journey. We just had our last (hopefully) frost on 6/13 and excited to finally get plants in the ground. Is it safe to assume that I can use your planting calendar, but just move everything forward three weeks?

    Thank you Kareen, I am so glad that I found you. I live out in Churchill (9 miles from Manhattan) so you are going to be a great help in our gardening journey. I like that your videos aren’t long with unneeded commentary, you are to the point and clear, thank you for that.

    You have a longer growing season than I do.

    I was just thinking I needed to make a planting calendar. I’m always too early or too late.
