Frequently asked questions
- How do I calculate harvest date from planting date?
- Add the days-to-maturity (from the seed packet) to the planting or transplant date. For example, planting tomatoes on May 1 with 70 days to maturity gives a harvest date around July 10.
- What does days to maturity mean on a seed packet?
- Days to maturity is the number of days from transplanting (or from germination for direct-sown crops) until the plant reaches harvestable size. It is an average — actual timing varies by weather and growing conditions.
