‍

🌱 Getting Started

‍

This bundle is designed to get your garden going as early as possible. These cold-hardy crops can be planted outdoors 2–4 weeks before your last expected frost. Start brassicas like broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower indoors 4–6 weeks early for a jump on the season.

‍

☀️ Sun Requirements

‍

Early season crops perform well in full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially as temperatures warm. A minimum of 4–6 hours of sunlight per day is ideal for most varieties in this bundle.

‍

💧 Watering

‍

Spring soils often retain more moisture, so water carefully and check before irrigating. Most crops in this bundle prefer evenly moist but never waterlogged conditions. Radishes and peas are especially sensitive to overly wet soil.

‍

✂️ Harvesting

‍

Many crops in this bundle mature quickly — radishes in as few as 20 days, arugula and lettuce in 30–45 days. Harvest regularly to encourage continued production, and succession plant every 2–3 weeks for a continuous spring harvest.

‍

🧺 Storing Your Harvest

‍

Most early season crops refrigerate well. Leafy greens last 3–5 days, radishes keep for 1–2 weeks, and root vegetables like beets and turnips store for several weeks in a cool, dry spot.
