What the folk calendar says

  • Above-ground crops: By folk tradition: sow and plant what fruits above the ground — tomatoes, cucumbers, greens.
  • Roots and bulbs: By folk tradition: root crops and bulbs, pruning and weeding.
  • Rest: By folk tradition: a day to rest — no sowing or transplanting.
  • Harvest: By folk tradition: no sowing; a good time to harvest.

Sowing by your frost dates

Greenly does not move a single date by the moon: sowing and planting dates come from ten years of frost data for your place and the soil temperature each crop needs.
