GreenlyWhen to plant tomatoes in Austria: 14 May – 23 July
Tomato in Austria: plant out into open ground from 14 May to 23 July; the window opens earliest in Linz and closes latest in Vienna (6 cities).
Each window starts on the Greenly calendar date and ends on the last day that still leaves the crop’s days to harvest (from its card) before the average first autumn frost, plus six weeks of picking for crops harvested over weeks (tomatoes, peppers, aubergines, cucumbers, courgettes, pumpkins, watermelons, beans) — our rule; earlier in the window is safer.
