Our app will automatically calculate your planting dates based on your GPS location by pulling information from your nearest weather station and predicting the last frost. If you would like to change these dates to adjust your calculated planting dates manually you have the capability to!
On any plant recommended planting dates, you will notice a gear icon for settings under the spring planting dates. You will select this icon and it will pull you into your location settings. You can double check that your location is correct and choose a new location on a map if needed. Scroll down and you will see the option to “Set Custom Frost Dates”. You can select this and insert any dates that you would like to see here.
