Greenly Garden

When to plant tomatoes in Czechia: 12 May – 23 July

Tomato in Czechia: plant out into open ground from 12 May to 23 July; the window opens earliest in Prague and closes latest in Ústí nad Labem (11 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.
