February Vegetable Garden Calendar — the days are getting longer, the light is returning, and you can already start preparing. Good news: despite the cold weather, you can start sowing in February. Indoors, you can start sowing some extra warmth-loving plants , in the greenhouse/greenhouse you can get early crops going, and outdoors you can plan robust crops or plant fruit. By starting now, you'll get a head start on the growing season. Early sowing can be especially advantageous for vegetables that require a long growing period. Use a sowing calendar to determine the sowing season and the optimal sowing time, so you know exactly when to start.
Note: Some sowing or gardening work can only be done in late February or later, depending on the weather. Rain in February shouldn't be a deterrent to starting preparations in the vegetable garden. However, one of the biggest disadvantages of sowing early is that the seedlings may not receive enough light, which can affect their growth.
Below you will find exactly what to sow in February , what to harvest in February and which perennials you can plant , step by step in Pickers style.
