The last frost date is March-ish–you don’t want to plant out corn, tomatoes, etc. before then. Certainly not the whole of “January to May.”

What about the crops that say do subsequent sowings every 2-3 weeks throughout the season? If you’re planting something in the spring and do those other showings will they survive the summer heat?

My name is Carrie Stark, and I was wondering if I could write an article about how pesticides and herbicides affect plants both positive and negative, and if there are any alternatives.

Let me know what you think and thanks for your time,

Carrie

I think it is best to rotate through several brands over time.
