Since steirodiscus are barely cold tolerant you can plant them a bit earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The last month that you can plant steirodiscus and expect a good harvest is probably September. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your steirodiscus may not have a chance to fully mature. You can get started a couple of weeks earlier by starting your steirodiscus indoors.
