A useful answer, with its assumptions

What can I plant today?

Compare 23 familiar crops against your season, regional Extension evidence, and an optional live forecast—then see exactly why each result changed.

How it works

Your garden context is evaluated against crop timing, frost tolerance, maturity, and a broad soil-temperature range.

No exact coordinates are stored. Soil temperature remains your measurement; a live NWS forecast is optional.

Optional live input

Check the next 48 hours

Your browser rounds its location to 0.001° and sends it directly to the National Weather Service only when you press the button. veggie.farm does not retain the coordinates.

Compare crops and their evidence

The table shows rule results beside the reference facts used to interpret them. A temperature threshold or maturity range is not an independent guarantee of fit. Open a row for sources and a planting action.

Read the result honestly

What this tool knows—and what it does not

Reference guidance

Season, frost tolerance, maturity range, and growing method come from the existing veggie.farm crop guides.

Seedbed temperature

Soil-temperature ranges are starting points, not a forecast. Measure your seedbed and follow your seed packet.

Your observations

The date, frost dates, risk preference, and soil temperature are the values you entered above.

Live forecast

The optional NWS lookup supplies timestamped hourly temperature, rain probability, and wind. Use your own soil measurement; an air-temperature forecast cannot supply it.

Look beyond today

Compare this season with previous years for regional temperature context. Try the Garden Decision Lab for light, companions, disease conditions, pruning and harvest. Historical warmth does not replace the forecast or a soil reading.
