We're having an early Spring. Is it time for me to plant broccoli, lettuce, and spinach seeds outdoors yet?

The rule of thumb is to plant pea and spinach seed and broccoli transplants about five weeks before the last frost and to plant lettuce seed and transplants about a month before. It's often worth a gamble, especially if the soil is warm -- that frost date is an average, after all!
