Planting Calendar for Sagina

Frost tolerance for sagina:	Tolerant of a very small amount of frost.
When to plant:	Up to 3 weeks before last frost.

Sagina can survive in a tiny bit of cold which means that you can plant them slightly earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The earliest that you can plant sagina in South Bay is February. However, you really should wait until March if you don't want to take any chances.

The last month that you can plant sagina and expect a good harvest is probably September. You probably don't want to wait any later than that or else your sagina may not have a chance to fully mature. Starting your sagina indoors is a great way to get them started a few weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date

In South Bay the average date of last frost happens on January 31. You should expect an average low temperature of 30°F in the coldest months of winter.

Half of the time in South Bay you get a frost after January 31 so make sure that you are ready to cover your sagina in the event of a late frost.
