Looking for a good 6B planting calender/schedule

[The Bearded Farmer]

Anyone have a link to a GOOD zone 6B planting/garden maintinence schedule?? I've been looking for a little while now and can't find anything worth while.

Thanks for the help!

Ha! Bearded Farmer, I checked Pennsylvania Cooperative Extension for a "garden calendar." You will notice if you click on them, they will send you to Indiana! [url=https://wayne.extension.psu.edu/Horticulture/garden.html](click) . . .[/url]

Anyway , Indiana is zone 6, too!

Of course, the winter hardiness zones may not have too much to do with vegetable gardening for you. I am guessing that your last frost will be about April 10th but you can check with your local extension office to learn for sure. Counting from there will give you sowing date ideas.

I hope that helps a little.

Here's another zone 6 planting schedule:

I think all of these are just general guidelines. It's gives you a way to get started. But when you plant depends on a lot of factors. The weather that year makes a difference -- this year in my part of 6B we are having an unusually cold and snowy winter; if that continues it may slow down my planting schedule. Also your garden's micro-climate makes a difference -- if you have a sunny south facing garden, you likely can plant earlier than I can in my partly shady gardens. Also how much work you are willing to do in providing cover, protection, etc makes a difference.
