FAQ

Planting vegetables in April and June is the best time. This is when the soil gets warmest, and plants tend to grow quickly. If you live in colder climates, you might wait until July or Aug.


What is the best way to determine what kind of soil I have?

It is easy to tell the difference by the color of your dirt. Organic matter is more abundant in dark soils than those with lighter colors. Another option is to test the soil. These tests can measure the soil's nutrients.
