California planting calendar questions

When should I plant my garden in California?

What is the difference between spring and fall planting?

Spring windows follow the last frost. Fall windows are counted back from the first fall frost so cool-season crops mature before hard freezes.

Why are some dates "weeks before" or "weeks after" frost?

Some extension guides give dates relative to the average frost date. This site works those out for each county from its NOAA 50% frost date.

Which extension publications does this California calendar use?

California Master Gardener Handbook Table 13.2 Time of planting (UC Master Gardener Program statewide page; table 'Recommended planting dates', source: California Master Gardener Handbook, Table 13.2); Publication 3338 California Master Gardener Handbook, Table 14.2 "Vegetable gardening at a glance: How to plant and store".

Can I plant outside these windows?

The windows are recommendations. Planting outside them raises the risk of frost damage, heat stress or poor germination.

How do I find my county's frost dates?

See the California frost dates page or your county page.
