You can plant them right through the fall, as long as you can work the ground. The biggest issue is that you want the roots to be well established, so that when the ground freezes, it does not heave the plants up out of the ground. You can prevent this by hilling your plants and then covering them with plastic or a good, heavy mulch. I've planted during every season (except winter, of course) and as long as I understood the dangers and prepared for them, I have had no problems. Hope this helps.

First fill with topsoil add compost. Then u can plant just about any veggie tomato, pepper, beans, squash, broccoli etc. strawberries are best planted in a strawberry pot

I grow the. In pa. Planted them in late May ,cool nights kept them from growing ,now they are moving .I think if you have a spot that gets some shade during the late afternoon they will take the heat

We are in Ohio mostly Zone 5, but unless your growing season is short - these should do fine in zone 4. I even have watermelons and pumpkins right now. We can also start our seeds in our greenhouse as of this past spring so that helps.

I live in the Sarasota area and have been having very good luck with them. In September I didn't plant them in full sun. My cucumbers were huge. My cherry tomatoes were the size of my palm.

I have planted all three! Tomatoes and strawberries did well (I live in Georgia) but my peppers were puny. You will want to build a cover over the strawberry section or the birds will eat them all.

i would say late may or early june at the latest. i live in zone 5, so you have to plan on what you will plant in it.

You could try, but strawberries prefer full sun. If they grew in the shade, they likely wouldn't produce much fruit. They can be and do well planted in containers that you can move to a sunny location.

I think that these would be fine in FL. There were a few things (like watermelon and goji berries) that didn't do as well in our Adirondack climate. They would do well in a warmer climate like yours.

Nope, they cannot. You are supposed to plant it outside when there is no more threat of frost, then after the summer, before it frost out, cut the leaves off down to the ground, dig up the bulb of the plant, put it in a brown paper bag, store it in your house somewhere warm and dry, when summer comes back around you can plant it back outside, give it lots of water and it will come back, and you'll get more bulbs every year.. That's how we plant these in maryland, they are for summertime only.

Late fall and early spring seem to work best for my needs. We constantly battle blackberry bushes that grow on state owned land next to our property and it's incredibly invasive. Crossbox does get the job done, but repeat applications are necessary for best results. Just make sure it's not windy and the weather is dry for at least 24 hrs or so when applying.

I live in FL, so I can plant any time. When I lived in NY, I would start the seeds indoors and set them out in the spring.

If you don't have a true winter I would think anytime is a good time! I always plant late and harvest late here in Oklahoma as well.

I live in Rhode Island and the winters are somewhat harsh. When would you recommend I plant the seeds?

Go for it, I am sure the season will be long enough. Besides, what will not planting them yield? :)

Sorry, but I do not know. I am near Albany, NY, where we have cold winters. I bought my plant in late Summer and it grew tremendously. However, we brought it in the house for the first winter to give it a chance to develop a little more before we try leaving it out all year. Once we plant it outside, we plan to plant it near the house on the south facing side to give it the best chance of survival.

I always apply early spring before my shrubs bloom. In Northern Virginia that would be mid March.
