Before planting it is a good idea to find your USDA Zone info to figure out your garden schedule. The zone info helps tell us things like average date of last frost and lowest expected temperature for your area.

The USDA zone info for Page can be reviewed to figure out when you can plant neeps.

Planting Calendar for Neeps

Frost tolerance for neeps:	Not tolerant of frost.
When to plant:	After all chance of frost has passed.

It's a bad idea to plant neeps until after the last frost has passed because they are not cold tolerant.

The earliest that you can plant neeps in Page is April. However, you really should wait until May if you don't want to take any chances.

The last month that you can plant neeps and expect a good harvest is probably August. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your neeps may not have a chance to really do well. You can get started a few weeks earlier by starting your neeps indoors.
