GreenlyWhen to plant tomatoes in Uruguay: 27 July – 6 March
Tomato in Uruguay: plant out into open ground from 27 July to 6 March.
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.
