Greenly Garden

When to plant tomatoes in Moldova: 1 May – 28 July

Tomato in Moldova: plant out into open ground from 1 May to 28 July; the window opens earliest in Bălți and closes latest in Chișinău (3 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.
