Frost risk probability — 10% means only a 10% chance of frost on or after that date (the safer, more conservative choice). 25% gives slightly earlier dates with a small amount of added risk.

Indoor start dates are counted back from your last frost date using typical seed packet recommendations.

All dates are estimates based on historical frost data. Always watch your local forecast and be ready to protect tender seedlings.
