YEAR-ROUND VEGETABLE PLANTING DATES FOR DFW NORTH TEXAS

VEGETABLE SEEDING & TRANSPLANT DATES

When it comes to starting seeds, either indoors our direct seeding outdoors, you'll discover that seeding and planting dates for different edible crops is hyper-local: meaning environmental conditions and temperature can vary from zip code to zip code. It will take time and experimentation to determine your perfect planting dates based on your local climate and micro-climate.

Target Seeding & Transplant Dates

Back when I was the General Manager for North Haven Gardens in Dallas, I created a detailed list of seeding and transplant dates for most popular crops based on my extensive experience and pro knowledge. I updated my own version of my list in the attached PDF can download and use to take your own notes. I've separated planting dates for both starting seeds indoors, direct seeding outdoors, and planting transplants outdoors.

If you live in a cooler climate then you'd need to adjust dates later based on your local climate. If you live further south than N. Texas you'll be a week to three weeks earlier than my list! Basically, even if you're in a different climate, this list can give you a template for how to stagger, schedule, or create your own succession crop schedule for your own location.
