Sowing Tips
Soil Temperature
Direct sow or transplant when soil at planting depth holds 60°F for reliable germination and early growth.
Expert Note
Start seeds 7 weeks before your last frost, then transplant only when nights are consistently ~50°F+ and soil is warm to avoid cold-stunting beefsteaks.
