@Queendreama ,

Here are the start times. The US is behind GMT. Put another way, GMT is AHEAD of us here in the US. That means that this evening, at 8pm ET, the swap will begin (because at 8pm tonight, November 1, GMT is already hitting midnight, November 2).

DogsNDaylilies said:US Start Times by zone...

Garden.org's server time is GMT (Greenwich Mean Time), which is AHEAD of members in the US. When GMT hits midnight, November 2nd (the swap start time), it is still November 1st for US swap members. Let me re-phrase/repeat this: If you live in the US, the swap starts on Nov. 1 for you.

Here are the conversions for US start times...

For swap dates November 1 - November 5 , we are still in daylight savings time:
Eastern Time: 8pm
Central Time: 7pm
Mountain Time: 6pm*
Pacific Time: 5pm
Hawaii-Aleutian Time zone: 3pm

*Arizona (with the exception of the Navajo Nation) stays on standard time all year and, thus, will be on the following schedule for the entirety of the swap...

For swap dates November 6 - November 9 we are on standard time:
Eastern Time: 7pm
Central Time: 6pm
Mountain Time: 5pm
Pacific Time: 4pm
Hawaii-Aleutian Time zone: 3pm (I believe...)
