>> When is first frost usually?

Based only on general location, Dave's planting calendar says "Nov 4". About 7 weeks, or 47 days.

"On average, your frost-free growing season starts Apr 4 and ends Nov 4, totalling 214 days."


BTW, Caroline, condolences: I see that your average first frost date is Sept. 15. Tomorrow!

Sad Sighing! Sad

Hey, I know what we need! Crops and flowers that thrive below freezing. I guess they would need antifreeze for sap, and exude it from their roots.

But then we would NEVER get any rest!
