Late winter has its own particular restlessness for gardeners.
Some vegetables need a long, warm season to produce.
Your average last spring frost date is the starting point for almost all seed-starting timing.
Each crop has a typical indoor growing period before it goes into the garden.
Some crops do better sown directly in the garden.
Almost anything with drainage holes works: plastic cell trays, small pots, soil blocks, or recycled containers cleaned well.
A good rule is about two to three times the seed's diameter.
